The New York Times website runs a feature called Patient Voices, in which people with disabilities or certain illnesses speak about their lives and struggles. This month, the feature highlights autism. The site has posted six recorded interviews with parents and individuals across a broad range of ages, including Judy Endow, the author of the movie The Power of Words and the kit Outsmarting Explosive Behavior.
You can listen to the interviews here: http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2010/04/02/health/healthguide/TE_autism.html. Macromedia Flash is required to run the program. Also check out some of these other recent NY Times articles on autism:
