Kate Reynolds is an openly autistic, queer, and multiply disabled children’s librarian, writer, and singer based in Windsor, Ontario. Finally diagnosed with autism in 2020, Kate believes that her life began the moment she understood she was autistic and shares her story in the hope that it helps others find and accept themselves.
In July 2021, while recovering from surgery, Kate created a Facebook Group called Storytime Solidarity. In November 2021 they launched a website: www.storytimesolidarity.com with a global team. As of March 2022 Storytime Solidarity has grown to 4.3k members and works in partnership with Library For the Kind
