I dont know how to insert a picture but Sports Illustrated writer Steve Rushin is an alumn. He actually gave the keynote address at the Ignatious Scholar dinner I attended before coming to MU.
To insert a picture, just click reply and then click on the "Insert Image" icon above the edit window (it looks like a picture frame). That will insert [ img][ /img]. You paste the image link in the middle of the "][" part. If you're confused by this, quote this post and take a look at what you see in the edit window.

The Free Money Guy - About 1 month after the Marquette Magazine had a blurb about him being an MU grad, I took a business trip to Boston. As I was leaving M.I.T., where I made my Voice of Customer visit, I spotted the Free Money guy in a Cambridge park on the Charles River doing what looked like him filming a commercial. You got to love the Riddler suit.

(http://www.nba.com/media/playerfile/doc_rivers.jpg)
"A product of Proviso East High School in Maywood, Illinois, Rivers earned the nickname "Doc" from former Marquette coach Rick Majerus, when he wore a "Dr. J" t-shirt to a summer basketball camp. Rivers played for the United States at the 1982 World Championship of Basketball, leading the U.S. to a silver medal and earning tournament MVP honors after averaging a team-best 18.6 points per game During the summer of 2001, he served as an assistant coach for the USA Men's Basketball Team at the Goodwill Games in Brisbane, Australia, that captured the Gold Medal.
Rivers earned a pre-law/political science degree from Marquette in 1985 and was honored by the Pro Basketball Writers with the 1990 J. Walter Kennedy Basketball Citizenship Award."
Why hasn't anyone brought this guy up? He went to Marquette for undergrad and law school and was a United States Senator.

In my opinion, if you write a book about your life and the book is made into an Oscar winning movie, then you're famous. Or, perhaps, infamous.
How about the Governor of Guam and the founder of Texas Instruments.

I can't find a picture of him, but his IMDb entry can be found here:
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0370907/
He didn't graduate, as he took an extended summer vacation one year. In the movie, they hold up a Marquette t-shirt, while searching his luggage.
Saw he speak at MU in 84, quite the interesting guy.
The made a movie out of it, but it was very "Hollywood." The book is the true story and a great read.
And his photo can be found at Reply #29 in this thread.
How about William Gates? He represented the University well and has gone on to serve public from what I have read. I could only find a high school photo and don't know how to edit. Here is a link for an older article.

Wow I was there too. Great speech and the book is well worth the read. Great stories about life on the road and sports history. For whatever reason the passage that sticks out most in my mind was about this up-and-coming Quarterback at Kentucky named Tim Couch. (I guess he can't be right about everything)
Clememt Zablocki, Chairman of House Foreiegn Relations, was an MUHS and MU grad.
So was SEC boss and MU player John Fedders (who was accused of beating his wife).

not really. i would have no idea who
for people that watch those shows he is. He's one of the regulars on Heroes and has had a lot of random rolls in the past few years. Give him a little time and I'm guessing he'll be pretty recognizable.

Just Pat O'Brien
Steve Bertrand who does news on WGN radio is an alum and big booster. Also, Charlie Pierce the Boston sportswriter and panelist on Wait Wait Don't Tell me on NPR talks about his MU days.
Please strike Bertrand from the list. If someone even suggested he was famous, I'm afraid his head might explode beyond its already inflated status. I often have to apologize to my own peeps for Bertrand, who can't seem to read the news without his own editorial spin; one I don't share.
Let's just say that he was a happy guy in January.
Was Ralph Metcalf mentioned?
Nick D'Agosto was the guy on Heroes and The Office. He was my roommate at MU and also here in LA for a few years. But he's been living in his own (sweet) place for a few years now, so you can lay the "he must not be successful because he still lives with a bunch of dudes" argument to rest.
you can also catch his work in the feature films ELECTION (w/ matt broderick and reese witherspoon) FIRED UP (lead role) and ROCKETSCIENCE. He just left for Mexico a few days ago to start shooting another feature opposite the lovely Camilla Belle.
also - the guy in the picture with Joel McHale on NBC'S COMMUNITY is Danny Pudi. he is a theatre grad. from '01. He is a huge MU hoops fan and one hell of a nice guy.

I believe Dave is no longer a State Senator and has become a lobbyist. He also is no longer under the age of 40.
The guy who played Billy Jack was an MU grad. So too was William Hayes, the guy who got rolled up in Midnight Express. From the movie I think his back side got rolled up, too while he was in that Turkish prison.

Not exactly. For decades Tom Laughlin(Billy Jack) has lied about his past. At various points he's claimed to have attended and played football at several different schools, including Marquette, Minnesota, Indiana, Wisconsin and the University of South Dakota.
While MU did have a guy named Tom Laughlin that played footbal during the correct period, they are not the same guy.

Back in the wilder single days the Fighter Bars were usually well stocked with a very high spandex factor of young women dedicated to supporting military aviation. There were mornings, however, when I wondered how could my radar have been so badly calibrated, if you know what I mean...
Couldn't find anywhere else to post this. On friday I played Milwaukee Lutheran High school who's coach is Marcus Jackson, he's got a real good team and hes a really good coach
I had NO idea that Hunter from The Office was an MU grad, haha

Topper will like this (from his wiki page)
D'Agosto was born in Omaha, Nebraska, the son of Deanna Rae (née Vellinga) and Alan D'Agosto, Omaha's major Arby's restaurant franchisee.[1][2][3] His mother is from Sioux City, Iowa, while his father is from Omaha.[4]

Marcus Lamonas? Also I think we had a "playmate" back in the 70's she posed for the coed's edition.

99 Grad
Ralph Metcalfe (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ralph_Metcalfe.jpg)
A gold and silver medalist in Berlin, a silver and bronze medalist in LA and a US Congressman Co-Founder of CBC
George Andrie too... he was last great football player to come through MU
Mr. Metcalfe is someone we should be very proud of, not just for his athletic achievement but his Congressional record and eventual standing up to the Daley Machine in Chicago.
Gwen Moore is an MU grad and a Congresswoman from Milwaukee as well. Worth the "famous" list, as is Joan Biskupic, who covered the Supreme Count for the Washington Post and USA Today and wrote a book about Justice Sandra Day O'Connor.
Incidentally, I don't think Tom Snyder ever was graduated from Marquette.

From Cheers? No he didn't attend Marquette.
Our most famous alum is Joseph McCarthy. But just look at this guy...

He died at the age of 48! He looks 15 years older in this pic. Man did people look old back then.

Heard a similar comment on the radio this morning that one of the actresses on the
Golden Girls was 50 years old when it was filmed and to compare her to JLo who is also 50. What a difference in what age 50 means between the mid-80's and 2020.

I don't think the women on the Golden Girls had the amount of cosmetic surgery that J-Lo has. ::)
Actually, a reboot of Golden Girls is in the works. So far Jane Lynch and Cyndi Lauper have been cast.

Yeah. I'm sure the only difference between JLo and Rue McClanahan is a nip and tuck here and there.
Jen Lada.
4ever, hey?

Well, you aren't exactly compariing apples to apples to begin with, are you? Ann-Margret was pretty hot at 50. And that was before Botox and fillers were invented.
And in Danny Pudi watch, he's the voice of Huey on the new version of Ducktales, and he's also starring in Rob McElhenney's (from Always Sunny) new show on Apple TV. I'd say he's made it.
