I don't know of anyone overly notable at my high school (Guilderland High, just outside Albany, NY).

However, my boyfriend went to high school with Eliza Dushku @ Watertown High School, Watertown, MA.

And my best friend Sydney went to high school with Jennifer Aniston @ the Rudolph Steiner school in Manhattan.

Nashua High School (Nashua, NH)

Paul Michael Levesque aka Triple H (wrestler)
Kole Ayi (NFL)
Mike Graziadei (The Young and the Restless)
Greg Landry (former NFL quarterback)

Mike Lupica grew up in Nashua, but I don't know if he graduated from Nashua High or Bishop Geurtin. Same with Mike O'Malley, but I'm pretty sure he graduated from BG.

Great Bridge High School (Chesapeake, VA)

Mike Cuddyer- Minnesota Twins. He was drafted my freshman year.
Justin Upton- Arizona Diamondbacks
Chris Richardson- booted off American Idol a few seasons ago

BJ Upton (Tampa Bay Rays) is Justin Upton's brother. He went to Greenbrier Christian Acadaemy, but would have gone to GB had he not done the private school thing.

David Wright (New York Mets) graduated from Hickory High School, which was our rival hs. I bump into his mom on occasion and she gets her hair done at my mom's salon.

Ryan Zimmerman (Washington Nationals) is another local boy. Yeah, we crank out baseball players pretty regularly down here.


Jimmy Fallon is from my ex-husband's hs (Saugerties Senior HS, Saugerties, NY)

I graduated from the same high school and college as Kyle Chandler from Friday Night Lights (and Early Edition...I loved that show!)

We both went to George Walton Academy in Monroe, GA (go bulldogs!) and the University of Georgia (go bulldogs!). Yes, bulldogs. The HS was like 30 minutes from the university. lol

ETA: Whoops! Apparently he didn't graduate from college. He stopped just short.

How could I forget John Ingle, drama teacher (Beverly Hills High): General Hospital
Joanna Hall was a star at Beverly as well. Nicolas Cage dropped out of Beverly when he did not get a role that went to David Schwimmer.

Hey, ellebud,
What role went to David Schwimmer? Nicolas Cage was at Beverly only one year. It was the year I wasn't there -- my sophomore year; his junior. Um, 1981-82. David was in my class. Such a sweetie.

I loved Kyle Chandler in a short lived tv show, Homefront. Apparently, I was one of the few. In the 1940's parlance of Homefront, hubba hubba!
