Iowa Public Television
Announces New Series
The Life Autistic
Iowa Public Television announced the launch of its
newest online series, The Life Autistic. The series
will premiere Monday, November 18th on Iptv.org,
Facebook and YouTube.
The Life Autistic will explore the challenges and
successes of individuals with Autism Spectrum
Disorder at different stages in life and ranges on the
spectrum. Featuring various age groups ranging from
the very young to the elderly, the series will include
personal profiles and interviews exploring topics
relevant to each age group.
“Working on The Life Autistic series has been a
profound experience. People with autism and
members of their families have graciously shared
their deepest struggles and greatest successes in
order to raise awareness and acceptance for those
with disabilities,” said series producer/director Judy
Blank. “I find it both humbling and inspirational that
every person we were privileged to meet works
tirelessly for gains towards increased quality of life
and independence for those with autism.”
The Life Autistic will include an estimated 12
episodes. After the November 18th premiere, new
episodes will be released bi-weekly on Mondays
through April 2020. Learn more at Iptv.org.

NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES
~News From Our College Students~
Jennifer Trom, of Cumming, was one the
University of Iowa students to be singled out for
“bringing ideas to life” as members of teams
competing in the annual Iowa Startup Games, an
activity of the John Pappajohn Entrepreneurial
Center.
The Iowa Startup Games is a three-day event
where students from all areas of study pitch their
ideas to have an impact. After a student pitches,
teams are formed and work together to bring the best
ideas to life. By the end of the third day, each team
will have had the opportunity to make their four-
minute pitch to a group of panelists for a chance to
win cash prizes.
Participating students learn problem-solving skills,
have the opportunity to grow their business contacts
and hone their networking skills by meeting members
of the Iowa City community, and begin to think like
a creative entrepreneur. Participants who are a full-
time registered UI student earn one credit hour.
