Audrey Riffenburgh would be great. She was one of the instructors at a
workshop I attended on writing easy-to-read health materials. The workshop
was in Maine -- I'm sure other list members have attended, and Ms.
Riffenburgh is on this list too. The other instructors were excellent as
well and would also make fine speakers but she is the first one that comes
to mind. Here is a little info about her. I don't see her personal contact
info but there is an e-mail address for the Clear Language Group. Or if she
sees this, she may respond to you.
If you are looking for a doctor or other clinical person, I don't know who
to recommend.

Subject: [NIFL-HEALTH:4298] Recommended speakers?


Hello all -

Does anyone have names of speakers/presenters they could highly
recommend?  We are thinking of having breakout sessions, workshops
and/or possibly a keynote speaker on the topic of health literacy for
our annual network conference next fall, and are in the process of
developing a "wish list" of possible invitee(s).  

Someone who also has practical medical (especially cancer or blood
disorders) and/or federal gov't experience would be very persuasive, I
think.  Please feel free to respond privately, so as to no clog up the
list.

Many thanks!
