2. Paul Robeson, multitalented genius (Rutgers College, 1919)
3. W. E. B. Du Bois, historian and sociologist (Great Barrington High School, 1884)
4. Jodie Foster, actress (Lycee Francaise, 1980)
5. Cindy Crawford, supermodel (DeKalb High School, 1984)
6. Ben Stein, actor and Comedy Central host (Yale Law School, 1970)
7. Harry Anderson, actor on TV's Night Court (North Hollywood High School, 1970)
8. Robert Byrd, powerful senator (Mark Twain High School, 1934)
9. Kevin Spacey, cool actor (Chatsworth High School, 1977)
