George as Sulu on Star Trek (1960s)
George Takei is a social media star, among so many other things. Check out his Facebook (best known for silly memes) and his Twitter (which he’s more politically outspoken). His husband, Brad, is on Facebook, too.
Inspired by his own experience in the Japanese-American internment camps, George created the Broadway musical Allegiance. You can get tickets to see the movie (premiered December 13, 2016)!
