Modern Means within the last five years or still alive and working.
This is just a vanity list. I don't really think I'm this important, I just want all of this written down somewhere, so that I don't forget it.

You may not be important, AAA, yet, but you're going to be. That's a prediction.

Thank you so much Bertie, you are too kind.

Allison Janney . . . good pick! She stands out in a generally outstanding cast.


Could I make some suggestions for your undecided categories:

Actress: Jessica Lange.
Modern Poet: Eminem.
TV Actor: Jimmy Smits (NYPD Blue).

Great choices:
Musician (solo): Bob Dylan
Musician (band): The Beatles
Poet: Robert Frost

Your list is vey impressive, and I might just agree with Bertie's predcition - good luck !
