Nanette Fabray, 97 Years Old
This actress got her break early in Vaudeville at the young age of three because of her incredible singing and tap-dancing skills. Her career trajectory took her through musical theater and eventually to Hollywood. Though she thought, at least for most of her youth, that she suffered from a learning impairment, she later discovered, in her 20s, that she merely had a hearing disability.
This diagnosis of conductive hearing loss caused Fabray to champion the cause of deaf people everywhere. And, of course, her hearing problems should be covered by her private healthcare plan at this point.
