Kerry Ann Wiley is a writer based in New York State.
Her work draws on personal experience and explores disability, health, public policy, faith, advocacy, and the questions that connect them.
Kerry has cerebral palsy and has written about disability from the beginning of Wiley’s Walk. Her work also reflects an interest in health care, access, public policy, and the practical effects of decisions made in those areas.
Her essays often begin with personal experience and expand through research, history, or policy when those elements are relevant to the subject. The balance varies from piece to piece, depending on what the topic requires.
Wiley’s Walk is Kerry’s own work and reflects her perspective as a writer.
