Abstract: The purpose of this study was to present a biographical picture of Dr. Charles Buell. The writer attempted to trace and identify the professional contributions of Dr. Buell and to examine his influence on physical activities for the visually impaired. Enough detail was given of his life to point out the qualities in the man which enabled him to gain the recognition he has. To accomplish this objective, five questions were considered: 1. What events took place during his formative years? 2. What were the achievements and professional activities of Charles Buell during the preparation for and the years of his teaching and coaching career? 3. What were Charles Buell's contributions to physical education for the visually impaired through professional organizations? 4. What were Charles Buellfs basic concepts and beliefs? 5. What has been the role of Dr. Buell's wife?
