I'm not, but my great-grandmother WAS a bookie. When we visited her (back when I was 5 or 6), she had a row of telephones in the garage we were never allowed to touch. She said she was "watching them for the neighbors". When she passed away, the family found all of her documents from her business - she was very organized!

My mother had a 2nd cousin who was in the All Blacks Rugby Team, not famous as in world wide but famous in New Zealand and the rugby world.

My cousin works in the music industry... you've probably seen him in a few music videos, he's a promoter and works with quite a few big names, he was also on project runway something.
There's a few popular singers in my family as well, which anyone who listen to reggae music would definitely know.
There's a few others...

Yes, not that I or anyone else that is related to someone well known would want to name names, it is nice being one of the many online. My dad is a musician, enough said.

Not anyone that I am aware of in recent history.
