KATHERINE HEPBURN - When Katherine Hepburn died in 2003, the film world was plunged into mourning and Broadway dimmed its lights in a mark of respect for Hollywood's greatest actress, who career spanned six decades. MAHATMA GANDHI - Mohandas "Mahatma" Gandhi may be an unlikely contender for the title of greatest political leader of the 20th century, but as the "Father of Indian Democracy," his radical program of passive resistance still inspires nationalist movements today.

He grew up to become Johnny Cash or the "Man in Black," one of American music's most influential and legendary performers.
