Reese Witherspoon is probably the most famous actor or actress born there.

Writer Elmore Leonard (Get Shorty, 3:10 To Yuma, etc) was born there which I did NOT know before today, though Anne Rice is probably more famous as a writer.

Tons of musicians from the city but Louie is probably most well known.

I've been in Europe multiple times and when I said where I was from, multiple different people brought up Armstrong

I guess we hang out with different crowds. I am in Europe or the UK about six weeks per year and I’ve never had anyone mention Louis Armstrong.
