    Does anyone know if there is any fact behind the rumour that Yoda's was modeled after that of Spencer W. Kimball?

    Spencer W. Kimball is a Mormon religious leader.

    Yes, I have heard that rumor from several sources. I have no clue as to it's origin, however.

    I've heard the rumor multiple times, but haven't seen any official sources that mention it.

    There are, however official sources that mention that Yoda was slightly modeled after Albert Einstein.
