Bill Cosby - In the winter of 1993, a friend and I went to New York to see some jazz at the Village Vanguard. We arrived early and when we entered the club the only people there were a man and a woman who struck up a conversation with us about the band that was going to play. After a few minutes the man asked to see my Village Voice. When handing it to him, I realized that I had been speaking to Bill Cosby, my childhood hero, for the past five minutes without even realizing it. And he couldn't have looked more like Bill Cosby, he was even wearing one of his tradmark colorful sweaters and smoking a big cigar. All of a sudden I was starstruck and started mumbling some nonsense, trying to impress him with my knowledge of his act. Thankfully, my friend gracefully ended the conversation and led me away.
