You may not recognize the name or even the picture but you have been touched by Kim Peek. While the movie 'Rain Man' is not based on his life, Dustin Hoffman based many of his mannerisms and speech-patterns on Mr. Peek. Hoffman even thanked Mr. Peek in his Oscar acceptance speech and went so far as to give Mr. Peek his personal Oscar. Below is a wonderful video about his life.
Enjoy and gods speed Kim...
