I forgot this fact though she is not deaf or HH herself, Camryn Manheim is a nationally certified interpreter for the Deaf and used to volunteer and work at some hospitals signing for mothers who are deaf and having babies
Also on house one of the main characters is suppose to have some neurological disorder that will slowly strip away her ability to control her body and cause her to be unable to control her limbs and speech.
Also http://www.d.umn.edu/~cspiller/stutteringpage/famous.htm has famous stutters. I know you are more wanting fiction over nonfiction though.
Another movie that has a big subplot around a person who is mentally disordered is Love Actually. The brother of the character that Laura Linney plays has some mental issue, since he is institutionalized in the movie.
