Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom

Answer: David Cameron

David Cameron is a British politician who was the Prime Minister from May 2010 to July 2016. Representing 'compassionate conservatism', Cameron succeeded Gordon Brown. Cameron supported liberal economic and social policies for the country. Under his leadership, major changes were made in welfare, education and healthcare, and same-sex marriage was legalized.

But the result of the referendum on 'Brexit' led to his resignation in 2016. He was succeeded by Theresa May.
2. Director of "Terminator"

Answer: James Cameron

Canadian filmmaker and deep-sea explorer James Cameron directed the hit movie "The Terminator" which was released in 1984, about a cyborg who comes from 2029 to kill Sarah Connor. As the cyborg said "I'll be back", so was Cameron, with a vengeance. Among his other blockbusters, he directed 1997's major hit "Titanic" which held the distinction of winning 11 Academy Awards.

He was a co-director on "Alien" (1979) and went on to direct "Aliens" in 1986. In 2009, he created a new world (Pandora) with the science fiction film "Avatar", which took in almost three billion dollars at the box-office.
3. Co-starred in "The Mask"

Answer: Cameron Diaz

Actress and former fashion model Cameron Diaz made her film debut in 1994's "The Mask" playing opposite Jim Carrey. She had a starring role in "My Best Friend's Wedding" with Julia Roberts in 1997. Diaz went on to play the title role in the 1998 comedy "There's Something About Mary", and was one of three "Charlie's Angels".

In addition, she voiced the character of Fiona in "Shrek". In 2013, Cameron was named the highest-paid actress over 40 in Hollywood.
4. "Takes a licking and keeps on ticking"

Answer: John Cameron Swayze

John Cameron Swayze (1906-1995) was a news commentator and game show panelist in the 1950s. Swayze was born in Kansas and originally set out to be an actor. Unfortunately, the timing was bad; it was 1929 and, with the crash of the stock market, acting roles became scarce.

However, he went on to achieve fame on TV as a broadcaster. He is, perhaps, best known as the spokesman for Timex watches and their durability. I'm sure Swayze's inviting voice telling everyone how Timex "takes a licking and keeps on ticking" sold many watches.
5. D.J. Tanner

Answer: Candace Cameron Bure

Kirk Cameron's younger sister Candace portrayed the oldest daughter of Pam and Danny Tanner on "Full House" (1987-1995). She later reprised her role as the now married D.J. Tanner-Fuller on the Netflix series "Fuller House" in 2016. Cameron also starred as Summer Van Horne on the ABC Family show "Make It or Break It" which aired from 2009 to 2012.

In 2014, she was a contestant on "Dancing with the Stars", finishing in third place.
6. Contender on the first year of "The Glee Project"

Answer: Cameron Mitchell

You may have missed it but, "The Glee Project" which began in 2011, was a TV singing competition (one of many) from Oxygen. The winner got to appear in a seven story arc on the Fox hit musical show "Glee" (hence the title of the show). "The Glee Project" lasted two seasons. Cameron Mitchell, nee Robert Cameron Mitchell, appeared on the debut season of "The Glee Project".

He was chosen in the Top 12, despite the fact that he had never taken a single singing lesson in his life. He also had no acting experience either and left, of his own volition, on the seventh episode.

He is not to be confused with the actor Cameron Mitchell, popular from the 1940s through the 1970s.
7. Prominent British journalist and author of "A Time of Terror"

Answer: James Mark Cameron

British author Mark James Walter Cameron (1911-1985) wrote under the name James Cameron (not to be confused with the Canadian director). Known for his sardonic wit and journalistic integrity, his subject matter often dealt with war, poverty and injustice. Among his works were "A Time of Terror" (1982) and "An Indian Summer" (1974).

In 1965 he did interviews in North Vietnam, including one with Ho Chi Minh, which resulted in his book "Here Is Your Enemy". After the war he became a broadcaster for the BBC.
8. California internet personality

Answer: Cameron Dallas

Cameron Dallas (no relation to Steve Dallas from "Doonesbury") was born in 1994. He is best known for his work on the video network Vine, where videos and personalities can get very big, very fast (kind of a 'millennial' thing). Dallas won the Teen Choice Award for Choice Viner.

He then went on to appear in movies like "Expelled" (2014) and "The Outfield" (2015). Multi-faceted, Cameron also released his debut single in 2015 called "She Bad". In 2016, he became the face for Calvin Klein Undies.
9. Former United States Senator

Answer: Simon Cameron

Ever heard of Simon Cameron (1799-1889)? He replaced James Buchanan as the United States Senator from Pennsylvania from 1845 until 1849 (as a Democrat). Simon joined the Republican Party in 1856 and was again elected to the Senate in 1857. He served as United States Secretary of War under President Lincoln at the start of the American Civil War from 1860 to 1862. Cameron also had business interests in railways and canals, and founded the Bank of Middletown.
10. Mike Seaver on "Growing Pains"

Answer: Kirk Cameron

Kirk Cameron appeared as the oldest brother on the sitcom "Growing Pains" from 1985 to 1992. His 2014 film "Saving Christmas" was infamous for reaching number one on the IMBD Bottom 100 List within one month of its release. An Evangelical Christian, he and his wife Chelsea Noble co-founded The Firefly Foundation, a camp in Georgia for seriously and terminally ill children.

He is also the real-life older brother of actress Candace Cameron Bure, seen earlier in this quiz.
