I had the honor of being introduced to Ronald Reagan and shaking his hand in 1976.
But I’d really swoon over Bret Cohen.

I saw DONALD TRUMP at THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA at the MAJESTIC THEATER on BROADWAY back in May!

Saw some other celebrities leaving the other theaters. (Candice Bergan, Angela Lansbury, John Larroquette, and the voice of DARTH VADER (James Earl Jones).

I also saw a Michael Jackson wanna be in Times Square.

Couple years ago, while I was at SMU (Southern Methodist University) I had a student job doing AV for many of the student/faculty groups on campus, and related stuff. One thing SMU does each year is the Tate Lecture Series, which has about 10-15 different speakers come in, usually well-known politicians, actors, business leaders, etc. And our AV group does everything for the student forum that takes place before the full-size lecture part. So I got to mic him up and shake his hand and all before he went on. Pretty sweet! Don’t think he brought his wife along for it, or she at least wasn’t there for the student part.
