Celebrities I've met in person:
- Martin Milner (actor, "Adam-12") ... though I was too young to remember
- Ryan Cabrera (pop singer) ... right before he got famous, was a nice guy
- Robert Picardo (actor, "Star Trek: Voyager") ... nice guy, too ... got a personalized autograph for a friend
- Joseph Gordon-Levitt (actor, "3rd Rock From The Sun", "(500) Days of Summer") ... on vacation in California at a record store ... also a nice guy
- The 5 Browns (classical piano-playing siblings) ... yup, nice kids, too, all five of 'em
Famous people my mother has met that kind-of blew me away:
- Gary Collins (actor, talk-show host)
- Sir Edmund Hillary (climber of Mt. Everest) ... had dinner with him and some other people
- Sam Walton (founder of Wal-Mart) ... she drove his car!
- Lady Bird Johnson (First Lady of the United States 1963-1969)
- Terry Kirkman (front-man of '60s rock group The Association) ... went to school with him and lived down the street!
People I've seen in concert who are dead now:
- Victor Borge (classical pianist and comedian)
- George Carlin (the best stand-up comedian who ever lived)
- Sam Kinison (evangelist preacher turned raunchy stand-up comedian who lived fast and died hard)
