Famous Alabamians from A to Z (Almost)
It’s always neat to find out who are the famous people from your state. You never know what famous person you will bump into while in the Yellowhammer state. My encounters have always been interesting and in odd places.

My famous Alabamian encounter (outside of the music business) was sitting next to Bart Starr (Hall of Fame Football Player) on a flight from South Carolina to Birmingham. The best part is, I had no idea that he was famous. People kept coming up to him and shaking his hand. So, me being me, I just asked, “Who are you? I can tell you are kinda a big deal.” I think he loved the fact that I had no idea who he was and that I was just nice, to be nice. He was super friendly, and I had the best conversation with him.
Here is a list of famous folks from Alabama from A to Z (almost). I’ve listed them alphabetically by their last name.
