16. Allison Williams
Another star of the Lena Dunham TV show Girls, Allison Williams is the daughter of news anchor Brian Williams. Brian is one of the most respected nightly news show anchors in the U.S. and has been named one of the 100 most influential people by Time magazine. He is the managing editor of NBC Nightly News and has been compared to Walter Kronkite. His daughter, Allison, wanted to follow in her fathers footsteps in front of the camera but not in the same way. Allison has just started out her acting career and like her cast mate Zosia, it will be interesting to see how she develops as a performer.
15. Paul Giamatti
Paul Giamatti is perhaps one of the most versatile and under-rated actors working in the business today. He has acted in movies ranging from Sideways to Rock of Ages. The great actor was born the son of Angelo Bartlett Giamatti. Angelo was a professor at the prestigious American university Yale. He later went on to become the president of Yale University. However, Angelos career went from academia to the world of entertainment as he was appointed the seventh commissioner of Major League Baseball, one of the most successful sporting leagues in the U.S.
