Cool find, both the video and the trivia connection. I remember Judy from Room 222. Never saw her Electra Girl show but I’ve seen that it’s available on YouTube. ---

I thought SAG-AFTRA rules prevented situations like that. ---

Per Wiki: > Union [SAG-AFTRA](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAG-AFTRA "SAG-AFTRA")’s policy prohibits actors with the same name; however, this instance of identical professional names went unnoticed due to the older List using her middle name to sign up with SAG-AFTRA and the younger one using her first name. ---

Obviously SAG-AFTRA’s policies can’t affect people acting before they were around. When I first visited LA and saw the Walk of Fame I thought it odd that Harrison Ford already had a star there. It was 1980 and he hadn’t been in enough significant movies to have earned one – it would be another year before he appeared in _Raiders of the Lost Ark_. What I didn’t realize was that this star was for a _different_ Harrison Ford, who had been an action-adventure star back in the silent era (he only made one talkie). He got his star on Feb 8, 1960, three years after his death. The other Harrison Ford got his star on May 30, 2003. The two men weren’t related. And I’m amazed that two actors with stars on the Walk of Fame have the same unlikely name. How many “Harrisons” do _you_ know? ---

How many “Harrisons” do _you_ know? There was a similar situation with Winston Churchill. Early in his life, he sometimes had to identify himself as Winston Spencer Churchill or the British Winston Churchill. Because back in the beginning of the 20th century, the famous Winston Churchill was the best-selling American author. ---

Because back in the beginning of the 20th century, the famous Winston Churchill was the best-selling American author. True. The politician-soldier Winston Churchill wrote to the other one after he’d published his first book: > Mr. Winston Churchill presents his compliments to Mr. Winston Churchill, and begs to draw his attention to a matter which concerns them both. He has learnt from the Press notices that Mr. Winston Churchill proposes to bring out another novel, entitled Richard Carvel, which is certain to have a considerable sale both in England and America. Mr. Winston Churchill is also the author of a novel now being published in serial form in Macmillan’s Magazine, and for which he anticipates some sale both in England and America. He also proposes to publish on the 1st of October another military chronicle on the Soudan War. He has no doubt that Mr. Winston Churchill will recognise from this letter — if indeed by no other means — that there is grave danger of his works being mistaken for those of Mr. Winston Churchill. He feels sure that Mr. Winston Churchill desires this as little as he does himself. In future to avoid mistakes as far as possible, Mr. Winston Churchill has decided to sign all published articles, stories, or other work, ‘Winston Spencer Churchill’, and not ‘Winston Churchill’ as formerly. He trusts that this arrangement will commend itself to Mr. Winston Churchill, and he ventures to suggest, with a view to preventing further confusion which may arise out of this extraordinary coincidence, that both Mr. Winston Churchill and Mr. Winston Churchill should insert a short note in their respective publications explaining to the public which are the works of Mr. Winston Churchill and which those of Mr. Winston Churchill. The text of this note might form a subject for future discussion if Mr. Winston Churchill agrees with Mr. Winston Churchill’s proposition. He takes this occasion of complimenting Mr. Winston Churchill upon the style and success of his works, which are always brought to his notice whether in magazine or book form, and he trusts that Mr. Winston Churchill has derived equal pleasure from any work of his that may have attracted his attention. > **[“Mr. Winston Churchill Presents His Compliments to Mr. Winston Churchill”](https://kottke.org/19/03/mr-winston-churchill-presents-his-compliments-to-mr-winston-churchill)** > > Before Sir Winston Churchill became a politician, he was a writer.
