Dad's Sacrifice to Help Me Succeed

In the 1980s, Leland Vittert’s parents were told that nothing could be done about their son’s autism. But that didn’t stop them from trying. In his new memoir, anchor and reporter Vittert reveals his autism diagnosis for the first time and details how his family, especially his father, helped him achieve personal and professional success.
