Autism and Music

“Listening to music while writing makes the flow better between my brain and my body….the different parts of my whole body frankly behave like they are separate, and the different parts seem to need to listen to the same beat to be able to move together like other people’s bodies do.”-Jeremy Sicile-Kira

Jeremy is a writer and advocate for the autism community. He is the first non-verbal  person with autism to have his own column in his high school newspaper, and to be a staff writer on his college newspaper.  Passionate about creating more understanding about people who are differently-abled, Jeremy writes articles, gives presentations and has co-authored his first  book, A Full Life With Autism:  From Learning to Relationships to Achieving Independence to be published by Macmillan in April 2012.
