Can You Have A Successful Career In Architecture If You Are Blind?

Chris Downey had a successful career as an architect and managed a team of designers in the USA.  When he suddenly lost his sight, many thought that his career was over but he proved them wrong.

RNIB Connect Radio's Allan Russell spoke to Chris to learn more about his work and his challenge to the profession to encourage more visually impaired architects.
