Which pianist began at a later age?

[iancollett6]

 I did, but Im assuming you mean well known pianists.
 James Rhodes is the only one I know of. Im quite sure he started when he was young but then didnt play for along time before restarting.

raymond lewenthal started when he was 15 or something like that.

Emre Sen started at 13.
Dang Thai Son, Perahia and Volodos decided to take piano seriously at a later age.

I heard richter was pretty much self taught until his late teens.

Yeah, but he's not a good model. Nobody is Richter.
