Pinheads, Microcephalics
Pinheads or microcephalics, occupy a unique niche in showbusiness. Most of the freak performers who were billed as pinheads were mentally challenged and unable to take care of themselves. Like child actors, pinheads could be easily exploited by their surrogate parents, their managers.
