I am a graduate (1971) of James Madison High School in Brooklyn. This evening I became aware of two other alumnus. Song-writer Carole King, and .........
drum roll please.......... William S. Gaines, founder of MAD magazine.

I'm not a big Carole King fan.

    Cool George. I went to university with CANADIAN COLUMBIA STS-52 ASTRONAUT Steve Mclean. Probably not well known in the USA.
