Leben Ted Supalla wurde gehörlos in eine gehörlose Familie hineingeboren. Supalla, Samuel J.: The book of name signs, Dawn Sign Press, Berkeley, Calif. 1992, ISBN 0-915035-30-8, S. 4, URL https://archive.org/details/bookofnamesignsn0000supa/page/4 Zu dieser gehört auch sein jüngerer Bruder Samuel James Supalla. Teds Vater nahm seine ganze Familie oft in den Gehörlosenclub mit.

Er ist mit Elissa L. Newport verheiratet, welche ebenfalls Professorin am Department of Neurology an der Georgetown University ist.

Akademische Ausbildung Portland State University Psychology California State University at Northridge Psychology B.A., 1973 University of Nevada, Reno Psychology University of California, San Diego Psychology M.A., 1975, Ph.D., 1982

Forschung Supalla ist zusammen mit seiner Frau Autor der ersten Arbeit über die Verwendung von Bewegungsänderungen zur Ableitung von Substantiven aus Verben in ASL.Supalla, T., & Newport, E. (1978). "How many seats in a chair? The derivation of nouns and verbs in American Sign Language." In P. Siple (Ed.), Understanding Language through Sign Language Research. Academic Press.

Er verfasste auch die bahnbrechende Arbeit Sandler, Wendy; Lillo-Martin, Diane: Sign Language and Linguistic Universals, Cambridge University Press, 2006, ISBN 978-0-521-48395-7, S. 77 über die Struktur von Klassifikatorkonstruktionen und Bewegungs- und Ortsverben. Supalla, Ted: Structure and acquisition of verbs of motion and location in American Sign Language, University of California, San Diego 1982 Supalla, Ted; Craig, Colette; Benjamins, John: Noun classes and categorization: Proceedings of a symposium on categorization and noun classification in The classifier system in American Sign Language, Typological Studies in Language 7, Eugene, Oregon 1983, Philadelphia 1986, ISBN 978-90-272-2874-1

Er hat ein Buch und mehrere Zeitschriftenartikel über die Geschichte der ASL und die Prozesse des sprachlichen Wandels veröffentlicht, die im Laufe ihrer Geschichte neue grammatische Formen in eine Gebärdensprache einführen.

In all diesen Arbeiten besteht seine übergeordnete Behauptung darin, dass die Struktur von Gebärdensprachen sowohl in ihrer Komplexität als auch in den Prozessen, die grammatische Komplexität in die Sprache einführen, der von gesprochenen Sprachen ziemlich parallel verläuft. In seiner jüngsten Arbeit konzentriert er sich auf die Struktur ganz anderer Gebärdensprachtypologien und vergleicht die amerikanische Gebärdensprache und ihre Familie aus dem Französischen stammender Gebärdensprachen mit der ganz anderen Familie von Gebärdensprachen in Japan und anderen Teilen Asiens.
