The music group, Moody Blues best puts Simone Brenneman’s feelings to words regarding her years of study, love and understanding of the illness labeled ‘autism’ in one of their songs “Won’t You Meet Me Halfway?” This has become Brenneman’s “autism anthem,” as it articulates the foundation of her belief in how she approaches anyone with autism.
