"Audio Description (AD) makes visual images accessible for people who are blind or have low vision. Using words that are succinct, vivid, and imaginative, describers convey the visual images from performing arts, media, museums and many other activities that are not fully accessible to a significant segment of the population (more than 32 million Americans experience significant vision loss). Dr. Joel Snyder, Ph.D. was one of the first audio describers, a pioneer in the development of audio description. He began describing theater events and media in 1981; for six years, he led a staff that produced description for nationally broadcast films and network series including ""Sesame Street"" broadcasts and numerous feature films. Snyder has worked with description and trained describers in more than 40 states and in over 60 countries, including a month-long Fulbright residency in Greece in 2019. In 2014, the American Council of the Blind published Dr. Snyder's ""The Visual Made Verbal: A Comprehensive Training Manual and Guide to the History and Applications of Audio Description."" It is available in Braille, as an audio book, and in six languages--a 7th, an Italian edition, will be released in the fall of 2023. He is the President of Audio Description Associates, LLC with clients world-wide (www.audiodescribe.com) and the Founder of/Senior Consultant to American Council of the Blind's Audio Description Project (https://adp.acb.org/), an initiative he founded with ACB in 2009."
