Steve Witt
Steve was diagnosed with ALS in May 2022. Luckily, he lives near a renowned ALS clinic and its team of dedicated healthcare professionals. At the moment, his ALS exhibits as muscle weakness in arms and legs, rather than affecting speech and swallowing. To the extent that one can be lucky in ALS, Steve has always preferred dinner conversations to aimless walks.
Among his pre-diagnosis careers and pursuits have been modern dancer/choreographer, punk rock guitarist, high-school English teacher, waiter in a trendy Soho restaurant, proofreader of Russian math and engineering journals, and creative director at a few New York advertising agencies
