“I can remember the frustration of not being able to talk. I knew what I wanted to say, but I could not get the words out, so I would just scream,” one of Temple’s famous quotes.

| Dr. Temple Grandin |
Dr. Temple Grandin, person with autism; professor of Animal Science; a livestock industry consultant and livestock handling designer; inventor of Hug Machine (designed to calm hypersensitive persons); author of numerous best selling books and passionate autism advocate.
Temple was diagnosed with autism between the age of 3 or 4. She avoided being institutionalized and with the help of early intervention; a structured school environment (in the 1950’s); a wonderful science teacher and a supportive family - all these helped contributed to where she is today.
After a long anticipation from Temple fans, HBO Films will finally release the biopic on February 6, 2009.

If I could snap my fingers and become non-autistic I would not do so. Autism is part of who I am," another famous quote from Temple Grandin.
Temple has a lot to say about people with autism and early intervention.
