John Kameaaloha Almeida - the "Dean of Hawaiian music" was a blind composer, musician, vocalist, entertainer, and teacher. He was born under a bush while his mother was gathering maile in Pauoa Valley. His blindness was attributed to the maile sap on his mothers hands, although advances over the past century in knowledge of childhood vision loss indicate a more likely cause to be congential blindness!
His compositions, at least 300, mostly inspired by women, were songs of love and romance, and enhanced his reputation as a casanova.
