I've only ever seen Jeff Healy in videos and I don't know much about the guy. He plays his guitar with it laying in his lap and he doesn't hold the frets, he runs his hand across the board (if that makes any sense).
As fas as why he plays that way, I don't know for sure but I'll take yet another stab in the dark and guess that he's blind, and that ways easier for him.
