Juilliard Grads?

I just recently bought the book "Juilliard," which I just loved, and I couldn't believe the history behind that school!! However, those of you whom went/are going must be really fortunate to have such an education, more over, possess such a talent. Good for you!! I'm jealous!

Curious though, aside from my fave LuPone, who else is a Juilliard grad and has "made" it today? The book talks about (forgive name mispellings) R. Williams, Eric LaSelle, Christine Baranski, and others that don't come to mind..oh Kelsey Grammer. Whom else? Patti LuPone looked very active in Juilliard productions, according to the book...what a talent she turned out!

Missed the "I"

I believe Bebe Neuwirth was one, for dance.

Jeffrey Carlson

Michael Urie (Ugly Betty) was in the same class as my best friend. Tracie Thoms was there the year below (or was it after?) them as well.

Christopher Reeves and Robin Williams were roommates at Juilliard. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure that's true.

Tracie Thoms
Kevin Spacey
Laura Linney

Wicked cast member Reed Kelly.( well, he was trained there, not sure if he graduated though)

The spectacular Jennifer Carpenter (Deb on "Dexter", and the title role in The Exorcism of Emily Rose).

"any good pics in the Juilliard book? my friend and I were looking at one in the bookstore at Lincoln Center and there was a gorgeous picture of young LuPone in, I believe, Scapin. is it the same one? "

To be honest, I can't remember off the top of my head.
However, there are beautiful pictures in it, both in color and black/white. It talks about the history of the school as well as it's divisions.
I bought it for $30, new, on ebay, and I think it retails for $50 It's one of those books that is an asset to your home library - I'm very into these things and I just love theatr and art in general (maybe it's becuase I'm 100 percent Greek :)

Anyway, my next book will be "The Shuberts Present: 100 Years of American Theater." Also, Juilliard: A History, and A Living Legacy: Historic Stringed Instruments at the Juilliard School - that book alone is $75

i was just wondering if you also wanted to include all the gypsies who are probably not "known quantities" but are working performers. john carroll went there, as did cody green.

Anyone, I don't mind.

I just want to connect with their work, is pretty much what I mean by "made it" (and I hate quotations by the way :) - you know, PC)

There are a few names I don't recognize, unfortunately, and thus I feel I don't recognize their talent as a result.

Plus, look at all those non-Juilliard grads who've also stamped their work in theatre/the arts as well...so my hat's off to you as well! Be proud of talent!
