Welcome To The 2001 ASHA Convention

"Welcome To The 2001 ASHA Convention" read the banner at the New Orleans Convention Center that greeted thousands of attendees last month. Former First Lady, Barbara Bush, spoke on literacy . . . actress Marlee Matlin received ASHA's Media Award . . . Elizabeth Carrow-Woolfolk received ASHA Honors, and more! So much to do, so little time.

The AGS booth hosted a number of activities as well.

Linda Statham starred as High Hat and greeted Sounds & Symbols authors Martha Lynch and Ron Goldman.
Dr. Elizabeth Carrow-Woolfolk visited with attendees after receiving ASHA honors.
Linda Khan, coauthor of Khan-Lewis Phonological Analysis (KLPA), answers questions regarding the new KLPA-2, available April 1, 2002.
The other KLPA coauthor, Nancy Lewis (second from the right), enjoyed talking with KLPA users.
AGS gave away a High Hat hat every hour on the hour. It's hard to take yourself too seriously when you're wearing one of these! See if you recognize any of the winners. (See a listing of the winners below.)
High Hat of Sounds & Symbols was the real star of the booth.
Coauthor Ron Goldman was on hand to greet attendees and answer questions about Sounds & Symbols.
