Summary
Patrick Henry Hughes was born with a rare genetic disorder that left him without eyes and physically disabled, but he was also blessed with exceptional musical talent, able to play the piano at the age of two. Now, at age… nineteen, he is a nationally known pianist, singer, and trumpeter who has performed at the Kennedy Center. But he's best known for playing in the University of Louisville marching band, while his devoted father pushes him in formation in his wheelchair. With determined optimism and courage, Hughes has made "I am potential" his mantra and defied the impossible at every turn. 2008.
