Renaissance Man - Dexter Holland

From the Wikipedia:

Dexter was the class valedictorian at Pacifica High School in Garden Grove, CA and was a Ph.D. candidate in Molecular Biology from the University of Southern California, however he declined to get his Ph.D. in favor of focusing on The Offspring. He has a Bachelor’s degree in Biology and a Master’s degree in Molecular Biology, both from the University of Southern California.

…In his personal time he enjoys flying, being a licensed pilot who has made a solo trip around the world in 10 days. He also recently participated in the 2006 Los Angeles Marathon, his charity of choice was the Innocence Project, a non-profit legal clinic that handles cases where post-conviction DNA testing of evidence can yield conclusive proof of innocence.

….and happens to be lead singer of “The Offspring”. I’m not saying it’s the best band ever, but you have to admire a man who succeeds in multiple fields.
