was he recognizeably famous back then?[/quote]
I presume you mean in the 80’s (didn’t want quotes within quotes etc ad-nauseum) Yes.. and probably more ‘attractive’ too. The crazy hair is now hiding some balding.

He was on Oprah in 1988: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEPs17_AkTI

In 1980: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-w47wgdhso%5B/quote%5D

79, 80 looks like he was pretty anonymous still. just getting started on putting his face everywhere…

Well are you talking ‘celebrity’ or ‘recognizably famous’. Warren Buffet is ‘recognizably famous’, but is not a ‘celebrity’ except maybe to a group of invest-heads. Same can be said for someone like Greenspan (maybe infamous for how he handled/created the 2000 market overheat)
