yes it can include major world figures.
according to this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celebrityand as such my answers stand, some in mine may be less a celebrity than others. so what? at one time or another, in local, country, or international, they all are celebrities.
a Local one would be Jack Barker a Musician that played on the TV in Winston-Salem, NC , in the 40's, when my Father was just a boy.
Jack plays an electric lap steel guitar as well as a standard acoustic guitar.
I've seen and heard him play like it was real easy. he actually had the same lap steel guitar when he was on TV. he still has it, still plays it. and he is, IMO, very very good.
gotta go now, I'll finish this later if I remember to.
