JB's comments in another thread remarking that Hoagie Carmichael sorta looks like Mike Grell Drew him stirred up some memories for me.  Throughout the years, being a Byrne fan, I've often noticed how some people look like they could have been drawn by him.  I first noticed this with Rue McClanahan of the Golden Girls.  There have been others as the years went by the most recent being Alison Mack.  For the most part, it always seems to be women who remind me of JB's art although Kyle Mclachlan also fits the bill for me.  Anyone else experience this or am I off my nut?

I think Parker Posey from Boston Legal would qualify.  She looks like Aurora in recent renditions.


This struck me instantly, when I first saw her, a couple of weeks ago.

You're not crazy, Wayne.  JB has often said that he can't draw likenesses, but there are people who look like they were drawn by him.  I've always thought that Jeff Probst, from Survivor, has a JB face.

I can see Byrne-girl in Karen Allen. JB's women have kind of a modernized old fashioned beauty, and that's the vibe I always got off Karen. (Which is why she worked so well in Raiders and Animal House)

That last Platinum (from Metal Men) he did? I could have sworn she looked like Uma Thurman.

For me, great love Joanna Cassidy and her ulra-sexy laugh.

Maybe a shoe-in for somebody.

And also Angie Dickinson:

 

Gotta be like a JB Janet Van Dyne.
