The Parthenon, August 2, 2007 by Cory Jackson
A self-proclaimed underdog, Adam Dean, Marshall graduate and former Parthenon staff member, has published his first book, a collection of short stories entitled, Dawn, the Alpha Dog and Related Stories through Publish America, a company that exclusively publishes works from minority community members.
Dean was born in 1975 with cerebral palsy and lived with the disease's effects, a severe speech impediment and a lame right arm, his entire life. He graduated from MU in 1997 with high honors and a degree in political science.
