Botticelli - June 2017

So: a living American man, first name starts with G, born before 1959, with his greatest fame before 2000. In the performing arts but not best known as an actor, singer, musician, comedian or TV personality. Also not known for sports.

Still thinking…

Hint: there’s others involved in the performing arts who aren’t performers, but do work with them.

So, maybe a director or producer…

IQs:

  1. Did you create Star Wars?
  2. Are you the son of the guy who created Star Trek?
  3. Did you play Sulu in ST:TOS?

Or costume designer, set designer, editor…

But there we’re getting into the Visual Arts rather than the Performing Arts.

not George Lucas, not George Roddenberry, not George Takei

Correct. Technically, it’s Gene Roddenberry, Jr. for #2, but let it go. Correct.
