Saving Superman
In a small suburb outside of Chicago lives a 57 year old man with autism named Jonathan, also known as ‘Superman.' Known for his heroic actions, he’s a revered member of the Glen Ellyn community and has been a staple in the 4th of July Parade for nearly 30 years. When Jonathan’s living circumstances were threatened by new development, the town worked together to save his home.
