Hello Cathy and everyone else interested,

I took the following list of potential sources from an online document 
that provides a reading list for a course at the Human Rights department 
of Chicago University 
(http://humanrights.uchicago.edu/curriculumdevelopment/syllabi/UChicago/Anthropology%20of%20Disability.pdf). 
Some of them have been mentioned by before, some might be of particular 
relevance for you - all academics represented have least necessarily 
dealt with their own role within discursive production and/or 
anthropological inquiry. Yet, maybe you will know most of them already.
In addition, I recommend:

McRuer, Robert. /Crip Theory: Cultural Signs of Queerness and 
Disability//./ New York: NYU Press (2006).

Goodley, Dan. /Researching Life Stories: Method, Theory and Analyses in 
a Biographical Age/. London / New York: Routledge Falmer (2004).

I have heretofore not been able to find any literature dealing on a 
comparative basis with the personal motivation and impact researchers' 
individual background has shown on their involvement in / relation to 
disability-related matters. The ones among us who do usually seem to 
just take it for granted - unspoken.  But I will keep my eyes open as 
well. Good luck in your efforts!

Yours,
Daniel Pateisky
