I'll do another one: Burt Reynolds Ben Foster Jon Favreau Judy Greer Christine Taylor Timothy Olyphant Will add one name on a daily basis til someone gets it.... Well, I know Reynolds and Olyphant have both played porn producers (Boogie Nights and The Girl Next Door).

If no one minds my trying my hand at one of these... Simon Rattle Elizabeth Woodville Clark Gable St. Augustine Hilary Burn Some of these references may be a trifle oblique, though I've tried to put a few extra clues in as well. And just to emphasize: I'm referring to Hilary Burn, not Hilary Burns. There's no need for unintentional confusion. ONE HINT: Oh, and another person whom we may want to include on this list is Rick "the Spotter" Harrison, though in some ways he doesn't count.

Can I assume that the link is NOT movie-related?

Sorry for not noticing it before--if anyone still wants to try his or her hand at this, I'd appreciate it, of course...

No worries , though I'm stumped with your list lol However, and of course, I could be gloriously wrong...but I think your "wording" is important. i.e "my trying my hand" / "trifle oblique" Is the link anything to do with "Magic"

With that said, my wording has nothing to do with these people, as far as I know. And thanks for the kind words!

soullimbo, alfromni, et al. Hint? Think of what these people are—not necessarily each person's profession, but possibly titles or nicknames... That helps for most, if not all, of them.

The first book in Google to come up illustrated by Burn is Crows and Jays. And a rook is a member of the crow family. One more thing: There's another way you could have determined the answer. Can you see it?
