sparky is watching election results in the Netherlands.

She is on mine now. Alma Mahler, wife of Gustav, who at least recognized his chauvinist error. And Walter Gropius. And Franz Werfel. She certainly had good taste.

Spoiler:
Not sure about Vivi's list, but mine is people I recognize or have saved for future GTHC. No idea about oscar but thinking it has to do with academy awards. Vivi?

Rarely wrong but able to admit when he is. Venerated for a groundbreaking accomplishment, he later refuted his own claim and simply said, “I was wrong.” In fact, you won’t turn into spaghetti but will be born, live and die. In that order. I think.

If anyone has been subjected to adversity, it is this man. We love to admire him: his intelligence, tenacity, accomplishments, candor, and human decency. Oh yes, of course, and his sense of humor. But his first wife will tell you he wasn’t perfect. She adored him nonetheless until he eventually became too much to deal with. She still loved him, and he her, but it was time to part.

His children will also tell you he wasn’t a perfect father, especially after his second marriage, but they love him—and he them.

He has defied all the odds, and it makes me wonder what’s next? Will he manage to achieve the lifelong goal he shares with many others? So far, everyone interested is still striving for it.

Isn't he adorable? guess-historical-character-gthc2.jpg

Is he an anthropologist? philosopher? psychologist?
American?

EDIT:
LOL...I kept looking at the picture saying to myself: 'he looks familiar...'
Then I Googled: famous person who reversed his own claim...his name the 5th hit and right away I knew who it is...Stephen Hawking

Wow, what a way to find him! And of course, you now know my answers to all your questions would have been no. What an amazing person he is. You're up, Pearla.

Spoiler:
I suspect he would be very happy to know you recognized him from his baby picture. When he was diagnosed 52 years ago, he was given two years to live.

Oh yes, I remember that now! I wondered if there was a relationship but figured it's probably a common name.

pearla59 is saying: stay safe!

Here is the next character

She never married, never borne any children. At one point she even declared that she has a man’s heart in a female body. She was not quite right. While travelling abroad, she did have a romantic liaison with a man.
Her father was an avant-garde educator close friends to the famous intellectuals and thinkers of his time. Her father home schooled her and some of those friends gave her lessons as well. The family’s financial situation was not as successful. When still young, she - her siblings too - helped by working as a teacher, seamstress, domestic, – whatever was available.
We know her today because of what she left behind. She died much too young after suffering poor health for many years.
