>Despite his on-camera demeanor, Carson was extremely shy off-camera. He was known for avoiding most large parties and was referred to as "the most private public man who ever lived."[3][39] Dick Cavett recalled, "I felt sorry for Johnny in that he was so socially uncomfortable. I've hardly ever met anybody who had as hard a time as he did."[15] In addition, George Axelrod once said of Carson, "Socially, he doesn't exist. The reason is that there are no television cameras in living rooms. If human beings had little red lights in the middle of their foreheads, Carson would be the greatest conversationalist on Earth."[3]
Any other actors who are secretly big autists?

Was he, dare I say, /ourguy/?
Though unbeknownst to most, Johnny Carson had an IQ of 183. He was first assessed to have an IQ of over 190, but 183 was the score assigned after a proper, multi-week, psychiatrist-administered intelligence examination.
He probably felt very lonely with such a towering intellect. Why would he WANT to interact with others not even close to his level of intelligence, outside of his job -- a job where he could openly challenge and mock those beneath him?
Johnny Carson was a one-of-a-kind guy. I'm glad he went into the entertainment industry despite his potential to be literally anything he could have wanted to be.

I know how it feels to not want to talk to people who are dumb. That's why I come here and spend my time with all you highly intelligent 4chan posters.

I heard something similar about Peter Sellars being boring and having a hard time expressing himself when not playing a character.
