I shook Ted Kennedyā€™s hand in 1984, saw Pat Shroeder (former congresswoman from Colorado) at a bookstore in Colorado Springs, saw Ethan Phillips (Neelix on Star Trek: Voyager) at a sci-fi convention in Charlotte, NC in the 1990sā€¦ Thatā€™s what comes to mind; Iā€™m sure there must be moreā€¦

Of course only one of those actually meant that I was doing more than just sharing space with the person. I donā€™t know if Rep. Schroeder even saw me. Mr. Phillips did, though.

Oh! I forgot. I auditioned once for Stanley Kramer and his wife, who were running an acting/dancing/singing school in Bellevue, WA when I was in high school. I was in choir, so I was trying to get in to their school. I wasnā€™t so interested in the dancing and acting parts though, and they had plenty of candidates who were. Stanley Kramer, if the name doesnā€™t ring a bell, was a film director. Itā€™s a Mad Mad Mad Mad World, Guess Whoā€™s Coming to Dinner ā€¦ lots more.
