What about him
He's solved some key mathematical problems and turned down the Millenium prize (a cool $1 Million)

  He is widely regarded as one of the greatest living mathematicians.
He's quite interesting not that it's clear why OP chose to post a link.

He lives a recluse now refusing to work professionally as a mathematician.

He and Bobby Fischer (maybe throw John Nash in there) remind me how close madness and genius can be. Although it's possible they see something about the world we do not.
