Nobody Nowhere: The Extraordinary Autobiography of an Autistic Girl is the award-nominated

New York Times Best Seller list for 15 weeks in the first half of 1993.[2]

Nobody Nowhere covers Williams' life from as far back as she can remember (three years old). At times, she was thought to be deaf, psychotic, disturbed, or retarded, but only as an adult did she discover that her difficulty interfacing with the world around her was related to autism. It ends with her leaving the manuscript behind with a UK child psychiatrist, Sebastian Kraemer, who sent it on to autism specialist Frances Tustin, who was responsible for its eventual publication.

Donna Williams is also the author of the screenplay of the same name which is optioned to Hollywood film producer, Beverly Nero.[3]

Williams released a music album by the same name in 2000.[4]

Like Colour To The Blind (1998)[6] and Everyday Heaven (2004),[7]
which are among her nine published books.
