About Temple Grandin:
Dr. Grandin did not talk until she was three and a half years old. She was fortunate to get early speech therapy. Her teachers also taught her how to wait and take turns when playing board games. She was mainstreamed into a normal kindergarten at age five. Oliver Sacks wrote in the forward of Thinking in Pictures that her first book Emergence: Labeled Autistic was “unprecedented because there had never before been an inside narrative of autism.” Dr. Sacks profiled Dr. Grandin in his best selling book Anthropologist on Mars.
Dr. Grandin became a prominent author and speaker on both autism and animal behavior. Today she is a professor of Animal Science at Colorado State University. She also has a successful career consulting on both livestock handling equipment design and animal welfare. She has been featured on NPR (National Public Radio) and a BBC Special - "The Woman Who Thinks Like a Cow". She has also appeared on National TV shows such as Larry King Live, 20/20, Sixty Minutes, Fox and Friends, and she has a 2010 TED talk. Articles about Dr. Grandin have appeared in Time Magazine, New York Times, Discover Magazine, Forbes and USA Today. HBO made an Emmy Award winning movie about her life and she was inducted into the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2016. Learn more at www.templegrandin.com/
I'm in the adoption process for a autistic child 16 yo. He is so amazing and loves animals. I have 10 dogs one cat. I'm 50 years old and Divorced. I am so happy to welcome such a gifted child in my life. I get a lifetime blessing and have every desire to help him navigate the world. We can do it together. I want to expose him to every possibility and experience.You have to be able to see the possibilities in these children and their gifts. So many beautiful gifts. ❤️
This is an awesome presentation! I am in my 60's, before my father passed away he told me the best thing he ever did was take an apprenticeship with a machinist. That is something we don't have anymore, apprenticeships. I would LOVE to see apprenticeships brought back and less push on going to college.
I fucking love her. She is no nonsense and passionate. Very assertive and you can Tell she's incredibly detailed oriented about her work
