I’ve worked with hundreds of celebrities in my career, George Clooney is a prince among them.

In a world of people where the joke is “the most important thing in Hollywood is sincerity...and if you can fake that, you’re got it made”, George is genuine.

You can feel good about liking him, he’s truly worthy of our admiration.

It took him a long time to be comfortable with his fame. That’s the mark of a truly humble person.

But I know how much DUers like and admire him, plus we know where he stands politically. And this was a warm and humorous interview, so I decided it was well worth posting. Thanks for letting us know that the admiration is well deserved.

He and my younger brother are friends. ( we're from the same area ) they met at Northern Kentucky University and have remained friends for years. When George comes back to visit Nick and Nina ( his parents ) he and my brother get together for a drink or a meal. Bro says he hasn't changed a bit

and he married an equally lovely woman..both humanitarians, smart and decent human beings. I've liked his acting since i first saw him in Sisters series decades ago.
