I was going to write something similar but I don't think it's most. Of the 7, only the Nobel Laureate, Ray Kroc and the runner seem to have been working on their "art" for lack of a better term for years beforehand. Bruckner and Midgley seem to have at least been in related fields though the difference between being a lecturer/teacher and an author/composer is more vast than I think we might think. Chandler and DuBuffet seem to be the most likely to be deemed prodigies. Chandler especially having been in a completely different field could be considered a prodigy.
