1. I was born on July 5, 1963 in Brooklyn, New York. My first major role in a mainstream Hollywood picture was Random Hearts. I've received kudos for my work on two popular HBO series.

2. I am half of the only father-son duo to have both won the Congressional Medal of Honor. I served as the superintendant of West Point. I presided over the Japanese surrender in 1945.

3. I was born in Nizhni Novgorod, W Russia, in 1873. Having fled from the Russian Revolution, I settled in the USA (1918). I wrote operas, orchestral works, and songs, but am best known for my piano music, which includes four concertos.

Douglas MacArthur, I believe.

Good job! I'll have to make them tougher next time. Right now I am off to make bread.
