For me it was Jeff Kinney. I was meeting a different author I love, but there wasn't enough room downstairs and we had to go up. Turns out that's exactly where Jeff Kinney works! He's the author who got me into reading so I thought that was so cool

I guess the most famous I've met is Screamin' Scott Simon of Sha Na Na. He's friends with my mom. Went to visit one year and he took us to his home in the valley of LA. Lovely guy, and the most insane driver I've ever met.

Tim Eicke, the UK judge at the ECtHR. He gave a talk at my university and I briefly spoke to him afterwards
