I've run into a fair share of celebrities. The few really memorable people Ive met:

John Wayne - Met him when I was 12-14 yrs old at a sporting goods/gun shop in Newport Beach. He took the time to actually talk with me and seemed like a regular guy.

Mary Martin - She had the ability to captivate people with her stories of old Hollywood. She was quite engaging. I had the opportunity to be around Mary for a week and every day was a new story.

Smothers Brothers - Had dinner with them prior to their performance in Chicago which I was seeing that night. They were a riot. It was hard eating dinner while laughing constantly.

Tommy Lee - Went to high school with Tommy. He was OK.

And a little known actress Joyce MacKenzie. She was my Jr High English teacher. She played Jane in Tarzan and the She-Devil. Also appeared in movies with Bogart, Danny Kaye and Jimmy Stewart. She was a terrific teacher and told great Hollywood stories.
