Professor Ron McCallum is a blind lawyer and the first totally blind person to receive a full professorship in any field at any university in Australia or New Zealand. Speaking with us about his life, professor McCallum explains what inspired him to write a memoir with the unexpected title: ‘Born at the Right Time’ Professor McCallum spoke with RNIB Connect Radio’s Simon Pauley. You can find ‘Born at the Right Time: A memoir’ on Kindle. (Photo shows the front cover of Professor McCallum’s book. He is wearing a navy suit with a white shirt and a striped navy and blue tie.
