One television show that I like is the HBO Series, "Deadwood."
One of the main charactors is played by actor, Timothy Olyphant. According to Olyphant's bio, he was a swimmer for USC and was a "U.S. National Finalist" in the 200 I.M.
In another post I remember reading that someone thought John Stossell (sp?) was an open water swimmer.
Does anyone know of other famous (or infamous) people who also swim?
P.S. George - we already know you are famous and infamous, so you don't count! :)

I read that David Duchoveny swims at a public pool almost every day.
John Feinstein has mentioned USMS several times on sporting news radio. One time he reported from the deck at Nationals. I think it was 2000. He said on the radio that he outsplit Wally Dicks on a world record setting 200 medly relay. He went on to explain that Wally was the oldest person to qualify for the Olympic trials. This was a nationaly sindicated show not just a local show.
(But it was a little lame for him to leave out the fact that Wally was swimming *** while he was swimming fly!)
