It's not something they need to know about, and certainly not something that should be specifically disclosed at an interview.

The only reason to disclose is if I need a specific "reasonable accommodation" from them to be able to do the job, and they indicate they are unwilling to make that accommodation without a formal request under the ADA. I won't be making even an informal request for accommodation prior to actually starting the job.
