[post_page_title]Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) / Ellen DeGeneres[/post_page_title]
Naturalist Henry David Thoreau wrote numerous essays about natural history that would serve as precursors to the environmentalism movement. He was a staunch opponent of slavery and offered one of the first arguments for civil disobedience, a notion that would later influence Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. Ellen DeGeneres, meanwhile, is… Ellen. She had an eponymous sitcom for five seasons, and voiced Dory in Finding Nemo along with its sequel. She can usually be found on her daytime chat show, which has been on the air for 15 years, and is the second most watched show after Dr. Phil. She’s also apparently a time traveler from the 19th century. Advantage, Ellen.
