Famous Anthropologist with Prosopagnosia

Jane Goodall has prosopagnosia
Also called face blindness

She is unable to recognize faces
she acts like she recognizes everyone
In case she met you before

Interesting affliction for a world-famous anthropologist
Who studied chimpanzees and reported back
That they express facial expressions of emotions
Sadness, anger, frustration.

Is it only human faces she does not recognize?
