July 9, 1933.

 

Oliver Sacks was born on July 9, 1933. This famous neurologist has gained an audience far beyond the medical community through his brave and creative approach to research. He wrote Awakenings which was made into a movie with Robin Williams, and The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat, and lots of others. He edited the 2003 edition of The Best American Science Writing also.
