Albert Einstein - a good friend of Charlie Chaplin’s, he and his wife were guests at the premiere of City Lights in 1931

Mahatma Gandhi - someone Charlie Chaplin very much wanted to meet, and they did in September of 1931 in London, England…ironically enough it has been reported  Gandhi who led a very different life had never seen a Chaplin film and did not know who he was..as hard as that is to believe.

Jim Henson (of muppets fame) - in 2000 Jim Henson’s estate purchased  the old Charlie Chaplin Studios on La Brea Avenue in Hollywood, Charlie Chaplin built the studio in 1917 and in 1969 the building was dedicated as an Historical Landmark.

On Monday, citizens across the United States celebrate the memory and achievements of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., a key leader in the African-American Civil Rights Movement throughout the 1950s and 60s. King fought against racial segregation in the United States and encouraged the practice of non-violent protest and free speech as means to change. King was an instrumental organizer of the 1963 March on Washington where he delivered his famous "I Have a Dream" speech to an audience of nearly 300,000 people.

Martin Luther King, Jr. Day was officially established as a US federal holiday in 1986. It is celebrated on the third Monday of January, which falls around the time of King’s birthday on January 15. Many now take this holiday as a day of service, dedicating time to work with volunteer organizations throughout the country.
