Temple is considered to be the world's most famous person with autism. She has a PhD in Animal Science and teaches at Colorado State University. She has designed innovative systems for handling livestock that have seriously reduced stress on animals and are used worldwide. Temple was one of the first adults with autism to speak out about their own diagnosis and experience. She has written a ton of books, essays, and papers on both autism and her work with animals, and is credited by many for transforming the way we understand both of these subjects.

What better way to honor Temple and her life's work by bidding on this very special work of art by Sassa
