Nikki beat me too it but I have the master list.

I dont know how it came out, but somehow it started around the time we were talking about all the famous people that live in the Hudson Valley like Liam Neeson, Uma Thurman, Eddie Murphy, James Earl Jones, etc. So we came up with who we knew through people we know. The person had to have talked and exchanged some communication in order to be listed.

Actors
Liam Neeson
Hugh Jackman
Mel Brooks
Julia Roberts
Geen Davis

I am informed that JRR Tolkien and CS Lewis do not count even if I ate in their pub and studied in rooms where they taught :(
