What’s great about television, film, music, whatever is it, it can bring this discussion and help get it out in the open. Something I hear a lot because people come up to me and say it, is, “Oh, I thought I understood my kid’s autism or nephew” or whoever it is in their family or friends of theirs, and then they feel that after watching the show they have a much better understanding and that of course than hopefully encourages them to even do more research and try to really understand the people around them.” In addition to his work in television, Gilchrist has also appeared in the films It Follows and The Babysitter.
