: Name any and all famous people that live in/come from your town. If you live in NYC or another big city, narrow it down to blocks/neighborhoods.
: Mine are:
: Pat DiNizio from the Smithereens
: Jeffery Hammonds currently of the Milwaukee Brewers
: Former NJ Governor Dom DiFrancesco
: Star- a NYC DJ (I think he's on Hot97 in the morning)
A couple sports people, Craig T. Nelson (Coach), Bing Crosby (Duh.), Julia Sweeney (SNL), Sherman Alexie (Smoke Signals), Mike Clarke (one of the Byrds), Brandon Tyler (Undressed, Days of our Lives - I know him.), Charlie Ryan (wrote the Cadillac song LONG ago. Nice old man, still drives around in his hot rods.)
Coeur d'Alene (A town less than an hr away.) Patty Duke lives there, Mark Furhman, Ellen Travolta (Yes. John's sister..)
An interesting story about John Travolta. A little girl in the area wished to meet him for her Make A Wish. Apparently, he has kept in touch and comes to visit often. Like.. Every time he visits his sister in Coeur d'Alene.
Nice area, this is.;)
