Frederick Forsyth.
Author of The Day of the Jackal and much much more. Didn't know he was a top-notch journalist who reported on and publicized the Biafran war in Nigeria when other media outlets had failed to do so.

Brian Wilson. The genius of geniuses behind The Beach Boys. Had a few mental issues but battled back to do some amazingly good stuff later in his life.
