It is state of human disorder in which one suffers from lack of verbal and nonverbal communication, social impairments, difficulty in speech and repetitive behavior. Despite all odds of being born as a troubled child, Temple Grandin manages to pass all school levels and earn her doctorate degree. The paper is about the determination and spirit of being acknowledged in the society where everyone rejects a person carrying any severe disability. Temple Grandin, who could not use words to express herself and could not even speak for several years in the beginning had this astonishing power of creating images of the world and people near to her in her mind and express her views in pictorial form and recalling them without thought. She developed an immense love for animals, especially livestock destined for slaughterhouses. The paper is about how well a person get out of a state of ridicule for others and proves her extraordinary skills of communication and intelligence on preconceived norms of autism. The paper also narrates the extensive work of Temple Grandin on cattle and livestock industry where she employed her unique view of the world to figure out how to deal and move cattle more humanely and efficiently. The social life of Temple Grandin starts with her loving and kind mother, followed by a very supportive teacher at a progressive boarding school which understands the Temple way of thinking and visualizing things around her in pictures. This unique ability of hers make her fond of animals whose reactions and moods seem to mirror her own. The paper is a detailed analysis on the life of Temple Grandin
