| Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles
available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Robert James
Provan (14 September 1944 - 6 July 2006) was a lawyer in the United
States. He was diagnosed at the age of five with Poliomyelitis. He
overcame the disease, but later in his life was diagnosed with
Post-polio syndrome. Provan was the first lawyer to successfully sue a
Health maintenance organization under the Disability Discrimination Act.
In 1961 as a sophomore at Irving High School (Irving, Texas), Provan was
persuaded by a senior named Lorenzo Johns to campaign for Student
Council President, primarily because of his immense popularity after a
trip to the school Principal Ed E. Williams''s office to be clear up any
eligibility rules that might be against it. Once Provan added his name
to the ballot, the other canditates withdrew and he was elected by
acclamation. Today at Irving High School there is a plaque on the wall
with his name as the only student ever to be elected twice as Student
Council President. |
