International Left-Handers Day: Famous Lefties

Last Friday (August 13, 2010) wasn’t just a day for superstition, as it was also celebrated as the International Left-Handers Day. According to statistics, only 10 percent of the population is use their left as the dominant hand, though there are a lot of left-handed people who have carved names for themselves in their chosen fields. The list includes three United States presidents (Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush, and Barack Obama), celebrated physicist Albert Einstein, and baseball hall of famer Babe Ruth. The list also includes Larry Bird, Oscar de la Hoya and Sir Paul McCartney.

The list goes on and on, but one has to admit, that’s a cool list of people.
