Tara Lipinski (1982): Champion figure skater who won the Olympic Gold Medal in 1998. Lipinski was roller-skating by age three, and winning local tournaments by age five. She turned to the ice at the age of six, and has been skating circles around the competition ever since. In less than six years, Lipinski won her first silver medal in the novice competition. In 1994, Lipinski became the youngest skater ever to win a gold medal at the Olympic Festival. That accomplishment made her a darling of the media, while commentators hung on her every jump. Lipinski made the move to the senior division, training rigorously while managing straight As in school. The 1996-97 season would be paved with gold for Lipinski, as she became the youngest women’s figure skater in history to claim the World Title. In Nagano, Japan in 1998, Lipinski claimed her gold medal in figure skating and once again went down in the history books as the youngest champion. More recently, the skater has tried acting, appearing in the 2003 film The Metro Chase, as well as a two-week stint on the WB's "7th Heaven".
Faith Evans (1973): Musician who was the first female singer to be signed to Sean "P-Diddy" Combs’ Bad Boy label. Although Evans was accepted to Fordham University on an academic scholarship, she left after 1 year to pursue a musical career. Evans began earning money (and recognition), as a back up singer for performers including Usher and Pebbles. Her songwriting talents took center stage in 1994, when she co-wrote tunes on the Mary J. Blige album "My Life." It was at this time that Sean "P-Diddy" Combs discovered Evans and offered her a recording contract. Combs was so struck by Evans’ voice that he went on to produce her self-titled debut album. Evans lost her husband, the Notorious B.I.G., due to a drive-by shooting in 1995. Her albums, "Keep the Faith" and "Faithfully" attest to the strength she has gained as a result of her heartache over the last few years.
Elisabeth Shue (1963): Actress who was everybody’s favorite "girl next door" until she completely floored the critics with her stellar performance as a hooker in the 1995 film Leaving Las Vegas. Shue began her acting career in College, starring in a string of commercials for "Burger King," "Hellmann’s Mayonnaise" and "DeBeers diamonds." In 1984, Shue landed a role in her first feature film, The Karate Kid. Shue’s talent continued to win her roles in films including Adventure’s in Babysitting, Cocktail, Soapdish and The Marrying Man. In 1995, Shue was given a Best Actress Oscar nomination for her role as Sera in Leaving Las Vegas, and has since gone on to heat up the big screen in The Saint, Palmetto, Hollow Man and Leo.
Maurice Sendak (1928): Children’s author and illustrator who was the first American author to win the Hans Christian Anderson Award in 1970. Sendak grew up with a love for reading and always asked his sister to go to the library to take out books for him. Among his favorite tales were The Prince and the Pauper and A Children’s Garden of Verses. In 1947, Sendak co-authored his first book entitled Atomics for the Millions. Sendak went on to create memorable, fascinating children’s stories that challenge imaginative, young minds. Some of his most famous works include, Chicken Soup With Rice: A Book of Months and Where the Wild Things Are, which won Sendak a Caldecott Medal for most distinguished picture book in 1964. Sendak also wrote the libretto to the opera for Where the Wild Things Are and penned the lyrics to the animated film, Really Rosie. Most recently, Sendak won a National Medal of Arts.
Judy Garland (1922): Musical legend who will forever enchant children with her portrayal of Dorothy in the timeless classic The Wizard of Oz. Garland was starring on stage with her sisters at the age of 3, and as she grew older, her stage presence became apparent to all that saw her perform. In 1936, Garland was signed to an MGM contract, starring in films including Thoroughbreds Don’t Cry (1937), Broadway Melody of 1938, Listen, Darling (1938) and the 1939 film that would change her life, The Wizard of Oz. Garland, who had the incredible gift of song, went on to give memorable performances in the musical films, For Me and My Gal (1942), Meet Me in St. Louis (1944), Ziegfeld Follies (1946) and Easter Parade in 1948. In her last great films, A Star is Born and A Child is Waiting Garland gave such emotional performances, that many consider them to be a reflection of her own inner-turmoil. Garland passed away in 1969.
