National Theatre of the Deaf The history of the NTD has been recorded in a variety of sources. Helen Powers, a journalist, wrote extensively about the NTD in her book Signs of Silence. The NTD has been discussed by D/deaf individuals in their published biographies such as Lessons in Laughter: An Autobiography by a Deaf Actor by Bernard Bragg and in primary sources such as personal interviews for newspapers such as Silent News (a publication for the D/deaf), journals such as the Puppetry Journal, and television shows such as Deaf Mosaic which aired regularly during the 80s and 90s. Additionally, several scholars have included details about the NTD, its formation and development, in their academic dissertations when obtaining advanced degrees.[5]:24-25; 41-42; 55-56; 70-71; 83-84; 95-96; 109-110; 117-118
Abby Sciuto Abby is a hearing child adopted by deaf parents[20] and likes her music loud. In the episode "Seadog", Gibbs tells Tony that Abby knows how to use sign language because both of her parents were deaf. Abby has stated that she dreams of visiting the Galápagos Islands, Dollywood, and Israel before she dies.[21] Abby graduated with full honors from Louisiana State University with a triple major in sociology, criminology, and psychology. She earned her master's degree from Georgia State University in criminology and forensic science. Sciuto's interest in forensics came from living near a wrecking yard and being intrigued by the cause and effect of the wrecks.[21][22] The season nine episode "Enemy on the Hill" revealed that Abby has another brother, Kyle (played by Daniel Louis Rivas), who is her biological brother, as it is revealed that Abby is in fact adopted.[23]
