Brother Tom was once a road manager for "Peter, Paul and Mary" and rented rooms in their Los Feliz mansion to singers and artists of the time, including Bob Dylan. It was documented in "Flashing on the Sixties", a 1987 collection of photos and text.

Rick Rubin

After collaborating with them for about 3 years, he had a mysterious falling out with the Beastie Boys in 1987, around the same time the group left their then-label, Def Jam Recordings and signed with Capitol/EMI Records, for whom they have recorded ever since. It is unclear whether the Beastie Boys left Def Jam as a result of their conflict with Rubin, or whether their ended friendship was because the group left the label for financial reasons. Shortly after the Beasties left Def Jam, Rick Rubin claimed he deserved all the credit for their success because he totally crafted their image and songs, although this never went to court.

Richard Jordan

Rene Auberjonois

In the same tradition as Jonathan Frakes, of "Star Trek: The Next Generation" (1987) reprising Commander Riker, Auberjonois reprised Constable Odo from "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" (1993) for an episode of "Family Guy" (1999).

Michael McKean

Turned down a regular role on "Married with Children" because he felt the show wouldn't be a hit with him in it. Passed on the recurring character of Dean Cyrus O'Dell of Hearst College on "Veronica Mars" , also. He decided to do the West End production of "Love Song" by John Kolvenbach instead.
