    I'm no academic - but I've always loved biographies and that's why I knew who Otto Kahn was (a little, as it turns out!)

    It's totally amazing how the lives of the famous and not so famous intersect. Very much like 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon - check it out! I found this hilarious factoid:

    You were correct right off! :)
    Even if you used 'was' instead of 'am'. :)
