Girolamo Cardano, Italian Mathematician

Gerolamo Cardano (1501- 1576) was an Italian Renaissancee mathematician, physician, astrologer and gambler. His gambling led him to formulate elementary rules in probability, making him one of the founders of the field. Today, he is best known for his achievements in algebra. Cardano was famously accused of heresy in 1570 because of his computed and published horoscope of Jesus, created in 1554.
