This section is devoted to great people with strong ties to California. It contains (will do so soon, hopefully) a table of names (in alphabetical order), together with some information: years spent in Caliornia (CA y's) + the domain of the activity of the person, and references (hard & links). This table is selective about Hollywood or else it'd be too extensive.
