She was the first deaf blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree Anne Frank was 12 when she wrote the diary of Anne Frank Elvis was a Superstar by age 19 Albert Einstein was 26 when he wrote the theory of relativity Michelangelo created the two of the greatest sculptures “David” and “Pieta” by age 28 J.K.Rowling was 30 years old when she finished the first manuscript for Harry Potter Amelia Earhart was 31 years old when she became the first woman 2 fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean Edmund Hillary was 33 when he became the first man to reach Mount Everest Martin Luther King Jr was 34 when he gave the speech “I have a dream” Neil Armstrong was 38 when he became the first man to set foot on the moon Christopher Columbus was 41 when he discovered the Americas Henry Ford Was 45 when the Ford T came out Charles Darwin was 50 years old when his book On the Origin of Species came out Leonardo Da Vinci was 51 years old when he painted the Mona Lisa Dr. Seuss was 54 when he wrote “the cat in the hat” Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger III was 57 years old when he successfully ditched US Airways Flight 1549, in the Hudson River in, 2009.
