Every list I read of "famous ADDer's" always has Edison, Franklin, Van Gogh, yadda, yadda, but my question is:

WHO ARE THE FAMOUS WOMEN ADDER'S?

Maybe I've missed it somewhere in my reading. But as an inattentive type, I need some inspiration these days!

Can somebody help a sis-tuh out?:)

Also cant forget the famous ADD women we already know....we Ladies are famous (NICE THOUGHT LOL):D

Tracey Gold began her career at age four by appearing in a Pepsi-Cola print advertisement. Tracey reveals that, ironically, the actress was nothing like her honors student character in ABC's, Growing Pains, she was failing her subjects in school. She was finally diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), a learning disability that affects millions of Americans.

And-- no double standards now! (i.e. "eww, no, she can't have ADD!)-- I very clearly remember Paris Hilton saying she has ADD.
