(1892) Grant Wood- He painted "American Gothic."

(1919) Tennessee Ernie Ford- He wrote "16 Tons" a timeless song in my book.

(1942) Peter Tork- The Monkees weren't as cool as the Beatles, but then again, who really is?




(1944) Stockard Channing- She was Rizzo in "Grease," one of the few musicals I can watch without getting up and leaving.

(1944) Jerry Springer- Jerry!!!  Jerry!!!  Jerry!!!

(1950) Peter Gabriel- He's got an eclectic sound, but he's made some really good music.
