pam Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) For a project I'm doing, who are some famous Mormons? I already have quite a list but looking for more. They can be anyone. Whether they were an inventor, musicians, politician, businessman, athlete..etc etc.Please don't give me links. I want to see how many people we can actually come up with and how diverse the list can be.So let the list begin.

skippy740 Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 If you're going to mention Mitt Romney, then (to be 'fair and balanced') you have to mention Harry Reid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are thinking of Victor French who played with Michael Landon in Highway to Heaven. He wasn't LDS.
