Success Stories

Meet a remarkable group of dyslexic individuals who have become leaders in their fields. These out-of-the-box thinkers have not only overcome the challenges of dyslexia, but have excelled beyond their own and others’ expectations. They are scientists, artists, political leaders, writers, lawyers, professional athletes, doctors, journalists and actors.

Each is a testament to the incredible power of the dyslexic mind to navigate around obstacles, come up with creative solutions and serve our society in meaningful ways. Whether you are dyslexic or care for someone who is, we hope you will enjoy and be inspired by their stories. (YCDC has compiled the stories of successful dyslexics in the book Dyslexia: Profiles of Success. For information on purchasing the book, click here.)
