Famous Left-Handers

Being left-handed, this caught my eye.

Approximately 8 to 15% of the adult population is left-handed. Studies indicate that left-handedness is more common in males than females. Left-handedness, in comparison to the general population, also appears to occur more frequently in identical twins.

Here are just a few from the list:

 Harry S. Truman 
Ronald Reagan
 Bill Clinton
 Benjamin Franklin
 H. Ross Perot
 Col. Oliver North
 Julius Caesar
 Prince Charles of England
 Edwin Buzz Aldrin, astronaut
 John F. Kennedy, Jr., lawyer/publisher
 Caroline Kennedy, lawyer/author
 David Letterman
Jay Leno
 Bart Simpson
 Natale Cole
 Judy Garland
 Paul McCartney
 Paul Simon
 Tiny Tim
 Leonardo da Vinci
 Dan Aykroyd 
George Burns
 Tom Cruise
 Robert DeNiro
 Whoopie Goldberg
 Steve McQueen
 Howie Mandel
 Sarah Jessica Parker
