Three Fields (A Brother. A Sister.) is the compelling journey of two families who chose different paths for their children born with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The authors, Anderson Burke and Dick Bradley, come together to reveal in sharp detail the moving stories of their respective families. One documents the pain and uncertainty, while the other joy and togetherness. Eddie Burke was admitted to a state institution at eleven months of age. Kathy Bradley remained in her family home. Many years later under the guidance and compassion of Kathy Jackson of The Arc of the St. Johns, Eddie was reunited with his family. Three Fields (A Brother. A Sister.) serves as a poignant reminder of how taking care of our most vulnerable citizens creates for a better world for all. Anderson Burke is the author of two books including "West of Indigo Blues" and "Three Fields (brothers)" along with numerous non-fiction essays and a handful of short fiction pieces. He graduated from USF's Creative Writing program and has enjoyed years as a guitarist and keyboardist in hundreds of rock and blues bands. He lives in Bend, Oregon with his wife Julie. Richard (Dick) Bradley was born the second of seven children. The fourth, Kathy, was born in 1955 with Down syndrome.
