Writer A. H. Reaume is wearing a plaid 1950s dress with a peter pan collar and a full skirt. She had curly blonde hair that goes down to her waist and white gloves on. She is smiling.

She has been published in Disability Visibility (Vintage, 2020), an anthology of the best personal essays written by disabled people in the last 20 years.
