Acting Without Barriers

What a great story about disabled actor Richard Robert Redlin appearing in “Hart to Hart.” (“Richard Robert Redlin Looks Forward to a Different Role,” May 6). From my experience as an extra, I do think terrible, old barriers are being torn down.
I had polio in one leg and walk with a limp. However, it has not stopped directors from putting me in scenes with Warren Beatty, Robert Wagner, Danny Aiello and Connie Sellecca.
Let me tell you, there are few greater triumphs than a director looking across a sea of extras and picking a disabled person to do a scene.
