Pulitzer Prize Winner Tim Page Is An Aspie

Post Reply New Topic

In the August 20th, 2007 issue of the New Yorker, Pulitizer Prize Winner and Music Critic Tim Page revealed that he has Asperger's Syndrome.

What this means is that we do not only have a Nobel Prize winner (Vernon Smith) who has come forward but now a Pulitzer Prize winner as well. I'm sure there have been a few posts on this but I could be wrong because this is pretty recent news. I figured I should post it just in case not everyone on WP has heard of it yet.

I haven't seen this posted before. This is pretty cool.

thanx for the heads up,

Does Alex know about this? I would be honored to have Alex Plank post on one of my threads (LOL).

I read this article recently. It was fascinating.

The article was very interesting.

Much of what he wrote resonated with me and my experience. I was able to contact him and he said that he is working on a memoir - will be very interested to read it when it comes out.

That would be a very interesting book to read.
