I saw an HBO production about an autistic woman named Temple
Grandin who has overcome her autism with her perseverance
and encouragement from her mother. She has a PHD in animal
husbandry and is a big spokesperson for autism. She had to fight
the establishment of educators as well as the male dominated
field of animal husbandry in order to get her education and her ideas
in practice. The role was played by Claire Danes who deserves an
Oscar for her portrayal. This woman sees everything visually so she
excels in engineering. I think HBO did a great job of presenting
the visuality and how it worked for Temple. This was a very
uplifting movie.
