[quote=Anonymous]In the book, the author obviously doesn't conceive of her as HFA, because that wasn't really a thing at the time. That said, she does have a lot of traits the author may have drawn from her experiences with people who would now be recognized as on the spectrum, though they weren't at the time. So saying that the author didn't intend her to be on the spectrum doesn't really definitively answer the question; that's what's great about fiction! That said, whether it was the screenwriter or the director or even just the actress, how the character was performed in the series *obviously* drew inspiration from the mannerisms of HFA women whether or not they intended her to be on the spectrum per se.
