Favorite Actors and Actresses
(This page is under construction.)
Listed in alphabetical order,
these are living actors whom I believe to be blessed with extraordinary range
and talent -
people whose very name would be sufficient reason for me to watch
whatever production included them.
I am sure there are many who
would disagree with both my inclusions and exclusions.
These are but personal choices.
