Dan Castellenata. Although "Simpsons" quizzes are common... a quiz about baldness would not be complete without mentioning Homer. Born in Chicago in 1958, Dan Castellenata has supplied Homer's voice since "The Simpsons" debuted. Much more than a voice actor, Castellenata's resume includes many guest appearances on popular TV programs, several feature film roles... even a stint on-stage. Castellenata also provides the voices of Krusty the Clown, Grampa "Abe" Simpson, Barney Gumbel, Mayor Quimby, Groundskeeper Willie and many others. The other three choices are also "Simpsons'" voice actors. Hank Azaria voices Moe, Apu, Chief Wiggum, Comic Book Guy and others. Harry Shearer is the voice of Mr. Burns, Ned Flanders, Principal Skinner, Reverend Lovejoy, Otto and others. Yeardley Smith is the voice of Lisa Simpson.
Mahatma Gandhi. Mahatma Gandhi was the hairless champion of a nonviolent campaign toward a free and independent India. Dwight D. Eisenhower was the 34th US President. Winston Churchill was the British Prime Minister during WWII. King Mongkut (Rama IV) was the King of Siam in the aforementioned "The King And I". All 4 choices were bald men.
Lieutenant Ilia. In the "Star Trek" universe, the Deltans are a highly intelligent race bestowed with ESP. They are also completely bald, although they still sport eyebrows and eyelashes. Albeit completely bald, Lt. Ilia is a stunningly beautiful woman. Much of the culture on Ilia's planet, 114-Delta V, revolves around sex. Sex is a part of virtually all relationships and socialization among her people. Since this social pattern is not the case among humans and the others in the crew, she has taken a vow of celibacy, much to the chagrin of her old flame, the testosterone-driven Commodore Will Dekker, also stationed aboard the Enterprise in "Star Trek - The Motion Picture." Lt. Uhura is the longtime communications officer in the original Star Trek TV series and movies. Lt. Carolyn Palamas was infatuated with Apollo in the TOS episode "Who Mourns For Adonais?". Lt. B'ynot'e is fictitious. The exotic-sounding name was borrowed from former Ohio State running back Butler B'ynot'e.

(AUTHOR'S NOTE: My entire motivation for writing this quiz is my recent community theater portrayal as King Mongkut in "Rodgers and Hammerstein's "The King and I". I loved the role and I quickly became enamored with the talent of Yul Brynner, the leadership of King Mongkut (not exactly portrayed accurately in the play / movie), the vision of Rodgers and Hammerstein for believing that this would make a good musical... and with BALDNESS itself... Upon shaving my head, I have found that WOMEN DO RESPOND!... ‘Nuff said.)
