Making Marriage Work with John Graham
John Graham, who identifies as autistic, shipped out on a freighter when he was 16, hitchhiked through the Algerian Revolution at 19 and was on the team that made the first ascent of Denali’s North Wall at 20, a climb so dangerous it’s never been repeated. He hitchhiked around the world at 22, working as a correspondent in every war he came across and was a US Foreign Service Officer for 15 years. He has supported initiatives for peace and justice in Asia, Africa and Cuba, including engineering a UN plan that helped end apartheid in South Africa. For the last 42 years he’s been a leader of the Giraffe Heroes Project with his wife, Ann Medlock, who identifies as neurotypical.
