On November 30, 2021, Kirk Nicklas appeared on "I am Jazz", a national TLC production. If you haven't seen the show, the main story line concentrates on a transgender girl and her family. Kirk was contacted by the producers for a short segment as a figure drawing teacher in the Ft. Lauderdale area. The segment was recorded need his studio in Wilton Manors. What a fun event.

The link below is to the show, however it may be only for a week or two. Kirk appears in a segment about 20 minutes into the show. What fun!!!
