From Cockpits to Cameras: Landon Ashworth on Autism and Storytelling
In this episode of Just Another Autism Podcast, Eileen Lamb chats with Landon Ashworth, an autistic filmmaker, actor, and creative powerhouse. Landon talks about how being autistic influences the way he tells stories, what it’s like working in entertainment, and why real representation matters. He also shares the inspiration behind his new movie, which was made in honor of his young autistic cousin and dives into themes like grief, healing, and finding hope. From aviation to filmmaking, Landon's path has been anything but boring.
Landon Ashworth is an 2E gifted autistic filmmaker, test pilot, and social media content creator who spent his entire adult life studying to becoming an astronaut, and his entire childhood in the theater. Landon won over a dozen filmmaking awards including best short at Oscar qualifying film festivals, best pilot script at Atlanta Film Fest and Raindance, and just competed directing and producing his first feature in honor of his autistic cousin who died by suicide last year.
