Richard Avedon shows all the traits of a born left-handed genius. I've studied this for over 25 years since I was hired into a university to teach observational astronomy. The administration had those of us, as new faculty, put through a special class about the human brain. This is where I learned from the nurse teaching the class, whose husband was a brain, about the cause of mine abd most all others, as naturally born left-handedness, my high IQ, and genius level in artistic abilities. Avedon shows this here at about 13 minutes on the time bar. Notice how he constantly gestures with his preference to the left hand. Is then soon seen to pulling his wrist watch off of his right wrist, which is where left-handers usually wear are their wrist watches. [Although many naturally born left-handers are mildly or forcibly trained to to write right-handed by Catholic nuns or conservative teachers or old archaic cultures across the world, which believed that one time that the sign of left-handedness was the sign of evil or the devil. Any of these brilliant people were tortured or humiliated because of their simple visual outgoing sign of left-handedness. It was described to me by the nurse teaching us, this class, as new faculty, and what she believes as the Doctor Norman Geschwind Theory. Dr Gershwin was studying women's amniotic fluids in the early 1980s and found that precisely at 6 weeks after conception, some mothers will display a high testosterone presence in their amniotic fluids. Dr Gershwin found that the high testosterone is observed to suppress the growth of the left lateral hemisphere of the brain which allows the right lateral hemisphere to outgrow and/or become more active. And it stays this way for life. This is what causes the preference of the use of the left hand, and this is determined at about 8 and a half months before birth in the early trimester of the fetal stages. The outward sign of the left-handedness is not realized by most people as internally identifying the larger inner right brain hemisphere, plus it was also observed that more neurological wiring is grown across from the right hemisphere through the corpus callosum and into the left hemisphere, as if we as left-handers are gifted with an extra brain computer. [You'll think of many genius people in the history books and you'll find when you look them up and research that they were naturally born left-handers. For example watch a short 9-minute excerpt of an interview with the famous, Dr Marshall McLuhan, the media analyst from Canada speaking with the talk show host, Tom Snyder, on his Tomorrow Show in 1976. McLuhan will reference the fact that he uses the right brain hemisphere, but he does not mention that he's left-handed, which he actually was. I think Avedon even mentions here in the questioning, that he is possibly ambidextrous or shows characteristics of Asperger's. The medical books were rewritten a few years ago, where it used to indicate Asperger's as a disorder, and is now rewritten into many medical journals, that Asperger's is a trait of naturally born left-handed people. It has also been observed that left handedness occurs more so in twins and more so yet in female twins. [More likely, one of the two twins will be left handed.] While I'm out in public places I perform a Public Community Outreach Service of what is known as Sidewalk Astronomy. I initiate tens of thousands of hours to setting up large sophisticated astronomical telescopic optics, while I allow the public to observe through these instruments, even from inner city street environments. Conversations will ensue about many things in life. I talked to all walks of life and I've noticed some parents who have children that are very energetic and they asked a lot of questions, I'll learn that many of these children that are very inquisitive with tremendous sense of awareness and energy tend to be very intelligent and creative left-handed artists, discovered at a very early age. Just listening to Richard Avedon talk about his early age, you could see that he was a young genius, already in his early years. He was extremely perceptive, aware, and very creative.
Thank God Charlie Rose is off the air. Journalists who play soft ball should be given the opportunity to interview the greatest talents the world has to offer. He would have been an excellent clown in the traveling circus of vaudeville.
Walked into an art gallery in San Francisco many years ago, made my way through the crowd, and, proof! There was Richard Avedon at a table signing his books. Such a cool moment. Intriguing guy, instantly recognizable...
