Jessie Sullivan, the world’s first bionic man, was recently featured again in a news story on MSNBC.com as part of a story on the pioneering technology that allows for the first thought-controlled artificial limbs.
Jessie and the creator of the bionic arm, Dr. Todd Kuiken, Director of neuroengineering at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago, presented their astonishing work together at Pop!Tech 2005 and were also featured in the recent PBS special, Alive from Pop!Tech.

Jessie is the most kind and gental man I know. He loves everyone for who they are. His wife is fanstaic in every way she supports him in everything he can do to help everyone. He is a family man all the way and loves them to the end of the world.
