Oceanside native Ken Kunken, who suffered a spinal cord injury during a college football game in 1970, has managed to carve out a successful career as a trial attorney in Nassau County.
Now, Kunken has recently published his memoir, titled “I Dream of Things That Never Were,” a collection of his life memories that he began compiling 52 years ago. He detailed the story of his life as a quadriplegic trial attorney, his personal experiences with disability, education, law, the American healthcare system, and his struggles and triumphs following an injury that left him almost totally paralyzed.
