NPR Radio, Dick Gordon’s The Story: ADHD & Me. Dick Gordon interviews Blake Taylor about his book and Nadine Taylor-Barnes about raising her son Blake. Apr. 23, 2008 (national broadcast in 60 cities) (audio)
From The Story:
Blake Taylor is now studying to be a doctor. But when he was little, he was one of those kids who could never seem to settle down. This was back when Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) was just beginning to be recognized and diagnosed. Blake tells Dick Gordon that even on medication, day-to-day living was tough. But his condition also enriched his life in unexpected ways. Blake’s new book is ADHD & Me: What I Learned from Lighting Fires at the Dinner Table.
Blake’s mom, Nadine Taylor-Barnes, joins the discussion.
