Well, who is famous and who is not is more or less a matter of

and "deaf scientist" and browsed a while. Most of them are not
pre-lingual deaf, but then most deaf people aren't in general,
especially with the reduction in childhood diseases.

But deaf before age 3 is equivalent to born deaf, as far as
language is concerned.
