Temple Grandin Quotes:
Ocupation: Professor
Life: b. August 29, 1947
Birthday: August 29
I was nonverbal until I was four years old. Back in the 50s, I was the kind of kid they used to just put away in an institution. But then you get the milder autism where there's no speech delay, but they're socially awkward. Those kids were around when I was a child. They were just called geeks and nerds.
