Ted Kennedy Jr.

Job Titles:
  • Director of InnovAge
Ted Kennedy Jr. believes people with disabilities are vital to boardroom success. Ted Kennedy Jr. is a champion for the rights of disabled people. His latest fight revolves around the effort to ensure disabled individuals are properly represented in the boardroom. It's a fight he says started when he was 12 and undergoing chemotherapy after losing his leg to cancer. He met another boy in the hospital who was going through the same experience. "I asked him, ‘Why don't you wear an artificial leg? Is it just too painful for you to wear?'" recalls Kennedy, a director of Innovage, Arvinas and Fox Rehabilitation, among others; an attorney for Epstein Becker & Green specializing in health care and life science cases; and the son of legendary U.S. Senator Ted Kennedy. "And he said, ‘Well, no, I would love to have an artificial leg, but my parents can't afford one.'" Ted Kennedy Jr. is a director of InnovAge, Arvinas, Fox Rehabilitation, EmpiRx Health and Med Power. He is a member of Epstein Becker Green in the Health Care and Life Sciences practice.
