Wasn't Reese Witherspoon born in BR? quote: Witherspoon was born at the former Southern Baptist Hospital (now the Ochsner Baptist Medical Center) in New Orleans, Louisiana, where her parents were living while her father was a student at Tulane University medical school.


I'm pretty sure she claims Tennessee as home, but I may be wrong about that.

Most people here will be unfamiliar with him, but the late NY stage actor Louis Edmonds was from BR.



He spent decades on a soap opera (All My Children I think)

If you BR people know any Edmondses, they might be kin.

They later moved to Oklahoma City before moving to the Los Feliz section of Los Angeles, California,
