- Vice-President George H.W. Bush (During a visit to Schofield Barracks, HI.)
- Robin Williams (I blogged it)
- Phil Lesh (While trying to find an address in Atherton. Got to show him The World's Worst Grateful Dead Tattoo. He loved it.)
- John Entwistle (While on a flight home while in the Army.)
- Randy Cross (49ers Offensive Lineman, he used to bring his cars to the car wash I worked at in Los Gatos. He let me wear his Super Bowl XVI ring one time.)
There have been others, for example I've met a ton of famous authors just from being a SF fan and going to conventions. I'm also ignoring brief encounters like asking Paul Krugman to autograph A Theory of Interstellar Trade at the Montreal Worldcon.
One really funny one. I met General John A. Wickham, Jr., Chief of Staff, U.S. Army. This was the man who commanded the entire US Army. Next step in the Chain of Command was the President. I met him on my first full day as a soldier, fifteen minutes after haircuts and uniform issue. I knew enough to try to stand at attention, at least.
