Hey there Wilson Tiger! You could add Ms. Manners to the list. And various local politicians, although not sure that counts as famous. Buffet by far is the most recognizable.

Susan Rice

A bunch of politicians’ kids (Kennedys, Gores, Johnsons, etc)

Hey there Commack High School!

--HHH HS West, home to Ralph Macchio and Brian Bloom (soap star). And Mark LoMonaco, aka Bubba Ray and some other wrestling names.

I wanted to marry Brian Bloom.

Same.

He was all over my bedroom walls. I bought every Teen magazine he was in.

Those eyes!
I went to HS with a former Olympic figure skater nobody would know.

Hi there - There’s not many of us Delawareans out there are there!

I’m the one who went to BHS - I recalled another person from my high school who I have seen in the media. Dennis Brockenborough was a big deal in high school band & ended up as a member of a band called the mighty mighty bosstones. I remember watching the movie “Clueless” in college, and when the camera panned across a party scene, I was startled to see Dennis playing the trombone! Not sure it counts as famous, though.

Sure, a member of mighty mighty bosstones counts if I can name David Plouffe ;p

I looked and Aubrey Plaza and Teri Polo were also DE natives
