All cities take pride in those that make it big from their city. But in Cleveland, we seem to hold a special place for all those that become famous from our city. We sing their accolades and shut down their critics. These 35 people were all either born or raised in Cleveland and the suburbs of Cleveland and we'll claim them forever.
At a time when local-based reporting is critical, support from our readers is essential to our future. If you're able to, please support Cleveland Scene today.
