Thomas Edison (inventor)

Cher (singer, actress)

Hans Christian Andersen (Danish author of several World-famous fairytales like "The Little Mermaid", "The Snow Queen", "The Ugly Duckling")

Benjamin Franklin (one of the Founding Fathers of the United States, author, politician, scientist, philosopher, publisher, inventor, diplomat...)

Henry Winkler (best known as The Fonz from Happy Days, now a published author of several childrens's books about children with learning disabilities)

Mary Tyler Moore (from The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Dick Van Dyke Show, That 70's Show, countless tv productions...)

And then there's the character Max Lopez from The George Lopez Show and Liberty from Degrassi: The Next Generation.
