Post Celebs Members of Greek Orgs

I was wondering if anyone knows what celebs are members of certain greek organizations.

Is Brad Pitt a member- or maybe Suzanne Sommers? How about Winona Rider?

Brad Pitt is a Sigma Chi. As far as the other 2 I don't think they went to college let alone were in a sorority.

I've heard that Joyce Dewitt on threes company was a Chi Omega and another actress on the show was I've heard also. I think the one that replaced Suzannes character. Brad Pitt is a Sigma Chi. There are quite a number actually that are celebs. Sela Ward from Once & Again, The Fugitive, is a Chi Omega. Katie Courick, NBC Anchor, is a Tri-Delt. Debra Norville from Inside Edition is a Tri-Delt. Liza Gibbons, who had her own talk show, Leeza I think, Enertainment Tonight, and E! is a Tri-Delt. One of my brothers has been an anchor on Enertainment Tonight. Another one of my brothers was on Melrose Place. Another one of my brothers, Will Hardy in the future is supposedly going to star on Days Our Lives. He was the boyfriend of Sabrina on the FOX show Sabrina. One of my brothers is the Executive Producer of ESPN. I've heard John Wayne is a Sigma Chi. James Arness from Gunsmoke was one of my brothers. AL, Richard Karn, From that Homeimprovement show is a Beta. I believe there is or was a Chi Omega on Passions. I could go on and on.

I think David Letterman is also a Sigma Chi and also that Robert Redford is a Kappa Sig.

some famous Kappa Sigs:

Robert Redford, Jimmy Buffett, Sam Donaldson, Ted Turner, Dan Dierdorf, Dennis Haskins (yes, Mr. Belding from Saved By the Bell), Wink Martindale, D. Wayne Lukas, Peter Jacobsen, Curtis Strange, Lanny Wadkins, and Bob Dole - i'm sure every national has a similar list as well, like Kevin gave us!

KSig RC,

Thats awesome. I had no idea those were Kappa Sigs. Except for Bob Dole. One more is Cokie Roberts(anchor for ABC) Father was a Beta. Theres a new advisor (DOJ) for President Bush who is a Beta too. He was on his campagin team serving as a legal liason I believe and he helped participate in the Florida recounts. That was recently listed on my Nationals. There are definitely loads of famous greeks across the GLOs. I think there are many that go unreported with Nationals too. Thats just my opinion.

Drew Carey, David Schwimmer (Friends), Matthew McConaughey, Pat O'Brien and Bill MacAtee (network sportscaster) are all Delts.

Also, three winning Superbowl quarterbacks, John Elway (Denver), Mark Rypien (Washington) and Jim Plunkett (Oakland) are Delts.

There is a listing at www.delts.org -- click on "About Delta Tau Delta and then click on "Notable Delt Alums."

And, for a good Deke friend, both Presidents Bush are Delta Kappa Epsilon alums.

Hootie- awesome list but Joanne Woodward is married to Paul Newman (I just know this because they both live in the same town as I work in and I am dying to run into Ms. Woodward sometime at the local grocery store and get her pix!) Don't worry- it is not bragging at all- just being proud!

Joanne Woodward - Academy Award Winner(Clint Eastwood's wife)

ISU_XO,

Thats awesome. I thought that Clint Eastwood was married to someone else but I guess I was wrong. I dont mean to brag either. I'm just proud too, which I'm sure we all are.
