Carol Padden is a professor at the University of California San
Diego and an American Sign Language pioneer. She has studied the way
that language influences our lives, particularly with American sign
language, the way that language allows us to interact with the
world. Dr. Padden will be incredibly helpful to us thanks to her
experience in the practical use of sign language, and potential
slang or expressions that we do not know because sign language is a
somewhat rare language.
