Were you born in the same city as a famous celebrity?

I just thought it would be fun to start a thread like this...so, any famous people born in the same place you were? I will start:

I was born in Concord, CA and found out that Tom Hanks and Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker from Star Wars) were both born in the same city! Pretty cool! :)

An its not a person but pizza hut was created where I live also, and now it is nationwide, they still have the little pizza hut place on Wichita state's campus where it all started.

I was born in a small town in Oklahoma and the likelihood of anyone remotely recognizable was slim to none until a few years ago. Then Thad Luckinbill came along. :)

The only other big name to come out of Enid, OK would be Sam Boyd, who was a well known casino owner in Las Vegas. He was part owner of the Sahara and later built Sam's Town.

You can go to http://www.imdb.com and look up a celebrity to see if he/she shares the same city of birth....Wikipedia might be a good source as well

Or type in "famous people born in...." at a search engine ;)
