In the US alone, dozens of actors and other entertainers have made the move to politics. Probably best-known of them is former president and Bedtime for Bonzo actor Ronald Reagan.

Before Ronald Reagan, John Wilkes Booth was probably the most famous actor to make a move on politics.

Musical actor George Murphy became California’s U. S. Senator in 1964. Reagan referred to him as his political “John the Baptist”.
