Dr Liane Holliday Willey, Ed.D. (
www.aspie.com)
is an inspirational speaker who helps her audience truly understand the
importance of accepting people with differences. All her life, Liane
knew she was different, but only after one of her family members was
diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome did Liane realize the reason behind
her own differences; she too was diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome.
Liane spends much of her time working with horses at the equestrian
facility she owns. Dr Willey has authored several internationally
best-selling books all published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers,
including Pretending to be Normal: Living with Asperger Syndrome
(foreword by Tony Attwood), Asperger Syndrome in Adolescence: Living
with the Ups, the Downs, and Things in Between, and Asperger Syndrome in
the Family: Redefining Normal and Safety Skills for Asperger Women: How
to Save a Perfectly Good Female Life. Liane has contributed to many
additional books and journals, and is currently the senior editor for
Autism Spectrum Quarterly. In addition to her numerous interviews on
national and international television and radio, Liane's life story was
an inspiration for the film Normal Folk, currently in pre-production,
and the feature film, Adam, as well as the focus of the video Asperger
Syndrome: Crossing the Bridge with Dr Tony Attwood. Liane believes the
Asperger's syndrome community is a wonderfully rich world that is
populated by some of the most interesting and incredible individuals on
the planet and she is exceptionally proud to be a part of it.
