Subject: NBP-Announce: A message from Anna Dresner


>A message from Anna Dresner to friends of NBP:
>
> Hello everyone,
>
> I have thoroughly enjoyed writing and editing books for National Braille
> Press for the past eleven years. I have learned a great deal, and am
> glad to have had the chance to help people learn some of the exciting
> technologies that have come out during this time. I have also enjoyed
> getting to know many of you. It's been a very rewarding job.
>
> However, I have been offered the opportunity to provide technical
> support for the National Library Service Braille and Audio Reading
> Download program. I am excited by this opportunity, and will be starting
> to work for NLS very soon.
>
> I am thrilled to tell you that the person who will replace me at
> National Braille Press is Dean Martineau.  From the Battery High audio
> newsletter he produced for Braille 'n Speak users starting in the late
> 1980s to his popular demonstration of the iPhone for Tek Talk a few
> months back, Dean has demonstrated that he is an excellent teacher who
> is willing to share skills that blind people need and want to learn. I
> know that the books he writes for National Braille Press will be clear,
> relevant, and helpful.
>
> Because both Dean and I have a great interest in the iPhone, we are now
> working together to produce an iPhone book for NBP that we hope will
> come out this fall. I am delighted to have the chance to work with Dean
> on this project.
>
> Thank you all for your support, and have a wonderful summer.
>
> All the best,
> Anna
