I'm just curious if you know if anyone did. I really don't think anyone did at my school. I went to a very small private high school. I know 2 actresses off hand who went to high schools in the Milwaukee area. Jane Kaczmarek went to Pulaski High School and Kristen Johnston went to Whitefish Bay High School. That's all I can think of.

Julie McCullough who played Julie on Growing Pains went to my middle school. She was a few grades ahead of me, and I never met her. I got a picture of her in my year book.

Paul Fieg who created the short lived show "Freaks and Geeks" went to my HS. My older sister knew him very well. They graduated together in 1980.

My school opened in 1974, I think, and doesn't have too many famous people attached to it. Unless you count Craig Krenzel, OB for Ohio State. he graduated from my school in 1999.

Alice Sebold (author of The Lovely Bones and Lucky) went to my high school.
There are actually some references to it in her books.

No one that I know of went to mine but Mark Hamill went to school with my aunt.
Robin Williams lived in the same school distract that I did, but he went to a private school in Detroit. Pam Dawber was in the next town (yes, both Mork AND Mindy are from my area :) ) Tom Hulce (who played Mozart in "Amadeus") went to my dad's highschool. I know Madonna was from an area pretty close by, but I don't know if she went to highschool there or not.

I went to a private school but if I were to go to Mt. Carmel High School (where all my sisters went) that's where major league baseball players Eric Munson and Eric Chavez graduated from.

I went to school with that kooky comedian Carrot Top. I've known him since 7th grade. We went through high school together, we were in band together, and graduated the same year, Cocoa High School, Cocoa, FL. Alot of people make fun of him now, but he really is a very nice guy, and I sure wish I had his money!! He just built a house in the same neighborhood in Orlando that Tiger Woods & Shaq have houses.
Brent Gates went to my high school. He was a pro baseball player.

Two people famous went to my high school/junior high school:
one is John Daly- who has a popular saturday night chat show on the BBC.
The other, plays for a premiership soccer team, called Neil Lennon
I suppose it's kind of easier to get into playing football than getting on tv- there are like 20 people each year from the school that try out for famous football teams
I'm not sure how the other guy got a tv show- he just became very famous overnight though- wasn't doing any acting or interviewing before-must've worked up through the business

Yes, I have met both Donnie and Mark Farner. My girlfriend went steady with Donnie at one time in high school and Mark I met through another girlfriend who is his cousin.( when I was 14 and he wasn't famous yet):D
I think their most known recordings would be "Some Kind Of Wonderful" and "We're An American Band".
The Brewer family still live in my town. (Swartz Creek, Mich.)Donnie's sister Sandy is/was a dancer on Broadway.
