I was in the Grand Union grocery store yesterday and saw Daphne Zuniga (remember Spaceballs!?), which got me thinking about all the VIP's that own property or frequent Nantucket.  So I thought it would be interesting to compile an unofficial list of the folks that I know that own "houses" or have visited the 'grey lady':

Current or previous owner's of Nantucket real estate:

Eric Schmidt - CEO - Google
Tommy Hilfiger - owner - Tommy Hilfiger Inc.
Jack Welch - former chairman/CEO - GE

Michael Egan - former chairman - Alamo Rent-A-Car
Kathy Lee Gifford - celebrity
Jerry & Ben Stiller - actors
Tim Russert - host - Meet the Press
Chris Matthews - host - Hardball
Paul Soros - businessman (brother of George Soros)

Others that have been to or frequent Nantucket:

Bill Clinton - former President
Laura Bush - current First Lady

These are just the ones that I know...there are probably many others...
