The September issue of Parks & Recreation magazine is out now, and on today’s bonus episode of Open Space Radio, we’re diving deeper into one of this month’s feature stories, “Dr. Temple Grandin on the Importance of Outdoor Play.”
On this episode, I’m thrilled to be joined by Dr. Temple Grandin, a professor of animal science at Colorado State University, world-renowned scientist, animal behaviorist, advocate for autism and author. She has appeared on television shows such as 20/20, 48 Hours, CNN’s Larry King Live, PrimeTime Live, 60 Minutes, the Today Show and more.
In 2010, Time Magazine named Dr. Grandin one of the 100 most influential people. She has also played a key role in designing play equipment and recreational spaces that are more inclusive for people with autism and others with different minds.
And, if you’re planning to join us at the 2022 NRPA Annual Conference in Phoenix this September 20-22, you will have the opportunity to hear Dr. Grandin speak at the Best of the Best ceremony.
Tune in to hear our full conversation and learn more about Dr. Grandin. You’ll also learn:
