Alan Turing was the British mathematical genius who broke the German Enigma code during World War II, gave birth to the computer age, and pioneered artificial intelligence. In 1952, he was convicted of 鈥済ross indecency鈥� with another man and forced to undergo chemical castration. Two years later, he committed suicide at age 41.
