Many thanks to Temple Grandin, PhD, for joining me on "The Art of Medicine with Dr. Andrew Wilner." Temple Grandin is a Professor of Animal Science at Colorado State University and perhaps the world’s best-known person with autism.
A special thanks to David Hirsch, founder of 21st Century Dads and host of the Dad-to-Dad podcast, for providing a warm introduction to Temple Grandin.

Temple Grandin has written nine books on autism and regularly speaks at autism conferences. She is devoted to helping people with autism minimize their limitations, discover their niche, and become happy and productive members of society. Her story is so unique that a movie about her life, “Temple Grandin,” was released in 2010.
Temple describes her challenges growing up with autism, the unwavering support from her mother and aunt, and how she channeled her love of animals into a successful career. She discusses the importance of early intervention for speech delay, learning turn-taking and other life skills, and the possibility of making friends through shared interests like horseback riding, music, and model rocketry.
During our 30-minute conversation, Temple offers advice for parents of autistic children and some tricks to minimize sensory overload. She also stresses the importance of searching for hidden medical problems such as acid reflux, toothaches, or urinary tract infections that may go undiagnosed and account for worsening behavior.
