I forgot another one. John Lithgow. My wife and I were in a restaurant in Glacier National Park and the guy in the next booth looked so familiar, we thought he was from Fairfield. Turned out it was Lithgow, with a few of his friends. The waitress told us he camps there every summer, or did at the

Another I forgot though I think I mentioned it before on FFL was James Caan when the jazz group I was in played for the cast party of a movie he was in. He sat in and played a little 3/4 blues though it was more 3/4 17/8. Mark Rydell, the director, OTOH, was an accomplished jazz pianist and

Probably not fair because I was am in the entertainment field so one tends to meet a lot of people that way. George Lucas (when he was a neighbor and not yet famous). In the TM crowd it was also Doug Henning who got excited when he found out I was also in the entertainment field and Paul
