Here’s the thing: Disabled people—save for Peter Dinklage—are 100 percent absent from television screens in America. Things are a bit better in Britain, where the BBC has a policy of only casting actors with the impairment that is described by the writer for a particular character. But that’s only been in operation for the last four or five years. We’re not used to people with “radically outsider” bodies like myself, so visibility is the number one thing.
