Alan Turing
Alan Turing was a pioneering British mathematician, logician, and computer scientist, widely considered to be the father of computer science and artificial intelligence. His work during World War II on breaking the German Enigma code was critical to the Allied victory, and his legacy continues to influence modern computing and cryptography.
Born on Jun 23, 1912 (112 years old)
