      [2019]., Adolescent, Annick Press Call No: BIOGRAPHY NF MCC    Availability:1 of 1     At Location(s) Summary Note: "Like many others on the autism spectrum, 20-something stand-up comic Michael McCreary has been told by more than a few well-meaning folks that he doesn't 'look' autistic.

Diagnosed with ASD at age five, McCreary got hit with the performance bug not much later.

This . . . memoir breaks down what it's like to live with autism for readers on and off the spectrum"--Publisher.
