Memories of Susan Thomas (1998)

In a Q&A session with NZSL interpreting students, Susan touches on her life journey. She was born as the only deaf person in a hearing family and raised in a strictly oral school system. Susan moves between Christchurch, Nelson and Palmerston North in search of employment. Susan talks about the dialect differences in sign between the South Island and the North Island, participating in the Trans-Tasman Games, and meeting her husband, Paul.
