We say that a simple, closed curve γ in the plane has bounded convex curvature if for every point x on γ, there is an open unit disk Ux and (Formula presented.) such that (Formula presented.) and (Formula presented.). We prove that the interior of every curve of bounded convex curvature contains an open unit disk.
