Forenote: I’d just like to say that
luxo was the original one who gave me this idea…when he made this quote in the
The Studio and People board:
So, without further ado: [b]What
famous (or infamous) people have you met?[/b]
This includes: Celebrities, popular authors,
famous music artists, etc…
Here is my list of the “sort of famous” people I have met:
Jim Cummings - He is a voice actor and an acquiantance of my dad’s.
Very nice guy. He gave me a purple monkey toy when I was eight, I think.

Andreas Schiff - He was the one who animated Scar, Jafar, and other
infamous villians. It sure was a treat meeting an animator who worked on my second favorite film in the world
(The Lion King). ![]()
Ollie Johnson - In reality,
I didn’t meet him; I only caught a glimpse of him. My dad took my sister and I to work with him one day, and it
just so happened that he had to catch a seminar or something at Disney Studios. Turns out that Ollie Johnson was
at the same event, and I was only feet away from him when he came out from the meeting. I could have had a chance
to meet him, I really could have. But…I didn’t want to bother him. He was surrounded by a small group of
people, so I didn’t bother. Worst mistake of my life. ![]()
How about you guys? Have you ever had a similar
experience?
