Didn't James Dean NOT get initiated, or blackballed or drop out during pledgeship? Not sure why, but it just stands out to me.
Anyway, for me, it's Sam Walton. You all know him...

Covering both viewpoints, I'll say Judy Woodruff (Omicron chapter) and Nancy Grace (Delta Theta chapter) are possibly the most well known, although Jean Smart (Alpha Theta chapter) is probably my favorite!

My favorite would have to be Kimberly Williams Paisley (from Father of the Bride fame...and also married to Brad Paisley).
My mom likes the fact that Jeri Ryan (Seven of Nine from Star Trek) is an Alpha Phi!
And of course from my high school days---Maile Misajon! I loved her in Eden's Crush

Actually, I have a follow up, too.
We have all listed famous people becasue that's what a thread like this expects I suppose.
The truth is that I have two other favorite alums.
One is Chauncy "Spike" Frisbee, a graduate of our former University of Colorado chapter in the late 1940's. I have yet to meet anyone who is more dedicated to the Fraternity.
Another is Larry Swanson, who graduated from Washington State University probably sometime in the late 1950's. He was (probably still is) our chapter advisor at the University of Northern Colorado. He took that position after our chapter at Wyoming folded. He has won the Venable Award as outstanding chapter advisor in our Western Plains Division.
Both men are members of our Distinguished Service Chapter.
There are also a couple of deceased brothers that I greatly admired -- men who gave freely of their "time, talent and treasure" as they say and who, to me, embody the spirit of our brotherhood.

Blackballed out during pledgeship, then went on to his acting career. I still claim him because I'm a huge fan

Since most are choosing show biz folks, how about these Delts...
Matthew McConaughey
And, of course, the new host of The Price Is Right
And from the world of sports...
Finally, this Stanford Delt, not only because of his football fame, but his community efforts and foundations in both Tampa and here in Denver:

Are you for real? I didn't know that! No wonder MGM is my favorite casino!
I can't remember her name, but she was in Sister Act 1 &2 and played Aunt March in Little Women. I can't remember her name and can't find anything on our "new and easy to use" website. I can't even find the list of famous alums. Yay. But she's my favorite.

My favorite Chi Omega alumnae are Harper Lee (author of To Kill a Mockingbird) and Pat Summit (women's basketball coach at the University of Tennessee).

haha, yeah...last year during recruitment a couple of us were complaining to our advisor that we really don't have anyone super notable (besides what's her name from the bachelorette) as an alumna, so she did some digging for us -- turns out we may not have a lot of famous alumnae, but our alumnae have married a LOT of famous guys -- so I guess we're good marrying material, or something  Micheal Phelps' mom was a Phi Mu, too!
