As long as we're stretching the definition, Pete Seeger (and the Byrds): "Turn, Turn, Turn"I know of many politicians who can seriously spin the truth.

Found this shot of the famous ventriloquist, Edgar Bergen, spinning with his famous puppets "watching".

...and these of the aforementioned William H Macy, who's pretty good, I hear.

This one is a bit of a stretch because it's a woodturner who became a celebrity because of a crime he committed. (I know a few turners who commit crimes with a lathe all the time, but that's a story for another day and another thread.) Anyway, here's a link to an article about a paranoid woodturner who tried to assassinate the British Prime Minister.

Gonna bump this in hopes of "turning" up someone new.

One of the actors from Parks and Rec is an avid woodworker. Nic Offerman, (sp) I think.

My wife saw an interview someone did with Mark Harmon [Leroy Jethro Gibbs] of NCIS fame....he does a lot of woodworking on that program, so the interviewer asked him if he does it in real life, and he said he does a good bit of wood working.......not sure if he has a lathe or not, but if he builds tables and such, it is likely he turns the legs.
I did not see the interview myself, but the wife mentioned it to me a week ago or so.

a couple of months ago I saw on the forum Fran Tarkenton, I might have misspelled that. Does anyone know if that is the retired Vikings quarter back on here?

I asked him that question, and he replied that he is a different Fran Tarkenton, although he is a fan of the former Vikings QB.
