Temple Grandin: Designing with Empathy

 



Temple Grandin didn’t just overcome autism—she redefined how the world understands it. Mute until age 3½, she found her voice through speech therapy and later revolutionized livestock handling by designing systems that reflect animal psychology.

Her autism gave her a unique visual-spatial thinking style, allowing her to “think in pictures.” This perspective helped her empathize with animals and advocate for humane treatment. She’s now a professor, author, and one of the most influential autism advocates alive.

Autism didn’t limit her—it clarified her vision. Grandin’s legacy is both scientific and spiritual: a call to see the world through different eyes.


Post inspired by Colette McNeil's books on autism: Choice and Structure for Children with Autism. Entienda el desafino de -no - en los ninos con autismo, and Understanding the Challenge of "No" for Children with Autism by Colette McNeil.
