Temple Grandin, a giant in the field of humane animal treatment and slaughter, the subject of a new biopic which airs this Saturday on HBO. Dr. Grandin is the author of many books and papers including Animals in Translation, Animals Make Us Human, and Thinking in Pictures. Grandin happens to be autistic, and her unique neural structure allows her to see as an animal would and to think in pictures, which has enabled her to use her talents to become a nationally-recognized expert in designing humane slaughter facilities.
Today, Fresh Air on NPR airs clips from four interviews with Temple Grandin in anticipation of the film's release.
A trailer, clip of the film, and more information are available from HBO.
