[LM_NET] TARGET->SEC->Follow-up to writing a resume on a famous person. Who are they?

[NHS Webmaster <nhswebmaster@COLLIER.K12.FL.US>]

Before I post a hit on this question, I would like some suggestions as
to who to include in a list of famous people that 10th graders could
relate to, but who we could find reliable information on in general
databases.

For example:

Steven Jobs, Bill Gates, Tupac Shakur, Paul Abdul, Laura Bush, Michael
Jordan, Stephen Hawkings, Apollo Ohno, etc.

I am trying to build a list that is not so totally "current" that we
can't find reliable information, but not so obsolete that the students
go "Argghh!"

Suggestions?

Many thanks!

Adam
