Who were some historical autistic people? I know Thomas Jefferson, and Issac Newton were.
Pic related was likely autistic as well.
King Ludwig II of Bavaria was schizoaffected. Today he might of been labeled an autist due to his behavior.

Mozart
Most of the great Manhattan project era Physicists

Just about every famous classical era scientist, mathematician, engineer and artist. When archimedes was stabbed to death during a siege, his (apocryphal) last words to his murderer were "do not disturb my circles", he was doing trigonometry in the dirt when he was assaulted, and wanted to continue working on it as he died.
Thomas Jefferson was too skilled a political leader to be diagnosable as autistic. Several of the U.S. founding fathers are regarded as geniuses in different ways, but their genius was heavily contingent on people skills.

There was accounts from his mother at a young age about how withdrawn he is. He avoided most of his King duties because he didn't want to interact with people, was obsessive, and unable to produce an heir. His brother was worse off, having to spend life under doctor subservience.
I heard Hitler was apparently autistic. Then something changed after WW1 when he was 29 and he went from Bohemian loner to agent soon member of the NSDAP.
