If you’re wondering where Richard Nixon resides these days, Chris Murray can tell you. The autistic artist, whose inspirational story is told in “Dad’s In Heaven With Nixon,” says the former president is playing poker with Chris’s late dad inside the Pearly Gates.
The documentary, which airs tomorrow on Showtime at 8:30 p.m. New York time, is basically a home movie about a deeply troubled family. Chris, whose autism is blamed on a lack of oxygen during birth, is in many ways the luckiest member of the Murray clan.
