NNDB
Between  its first entry, the late R&B star Aaliyah, and its last, Bad Santa director Terry Zwigoff, lies over 11,000 profiles from every walk of life. It's a sort of Who's Who web-style, with the entries interconnected by common factors like honors, education, and risk factors. Some profiles give basic biographical info and the rather subjective "level of fame," while others (French President Jacques Chirac, for example) merit more detail. From the great to the grating, NNDB claims to be "tracking the entire world." Yes, everyone from Monty Hall to Hall & Oates to Joyce Carol Oates to James Joyce to Dr. Joyce Brothers. Check up on anyone who's ever wangled 15 minutes of fame. Who knows, maybe you're in there, too. (in Celebrities) |
