For some reason I am fascinated with which celebrities have kids with autism. I guess it is sort of the same as my obsession with who is Canadian. My husband is Canadian and so I collect this usless data and whenever Neil Young comes on the radio I say "He's Canadian." Now when watching Office Space and Lundberg comes on camera I say "His daughter has autism."
I am adding more and more to the list, especially when April (Autism Awareness Month)comes around. I just learned about Gary Cole's (Lundberg) daughter as well as Didi Conn this week.
Maybe it just shows what I mean by Spectrum Schmectrum I think about them both in the same way, my husband=Canadian my son= Autism. Both describe something about them but I don't define either of them with that one label.
More celebrities with kids on the autism spectrum:
Jenny McCarthy
Stephen Stills
Dan Marino
Holly Robinson Peete
Aidan Quinn
Joe Mantegna
Ed Asner
Robert Smigel
William Christopher
John Schneider
Toni Braxton
I will update as I come upon more names. The list of Canadians is much longer...too long to post.
