Famous people with Tourette’s syndrome

I was curious so I went over to this wikipedia page, which at the time of this writing includes:

musicians/composers 12 actors/performers/motivational speakers 10 athletes 6 writers/journalists 4 politicians/activists 3 scientists 3 rich people / political commentators 2

Some of the people fell into multiple categories; for them, I picked one.

It’s an interesting mix, with Samuel Johnson as the top dog. More musicians and performers than I would’ve thought, but maybe that’s just who’s on wikipedia?

The most interesting story on the list is of this guy, who died from methanol poisoning while working in Antarctica. It’s possible he was murdered.
