Kira Weber is an artist/illustrator who was passionate about art before she could talk. As soon as she could hold a crayon, she began creating intricately detailed art. She credits her autism for having the ability to focus for extended periods as she paints and draws. Kira met Jeannie Fleming-Gifford who noticed her artistic talent and introduced her to the manuscript for SymFUNNY, which was written nearly two decades ago -- just waiting for Kira! 

Kira and her mom, Lori share their story with the listeners about this special project.
