RIP Donald Triplett (1933–2023), who at the age of 5 became the first person to be given the newly-conceived diagnosis of autism. In the writings of Dr. Leo Kanner, the child psychiatrist who came up with the diagnosis, Mr. Triplett is referred to as "Case 1."

The photo shows a photo of a bald, white, male looking person, not really looking into the camera.the person wears a white shirt and suspenders, and the background seems like an autumn landscape of trees without leaves.
