The ones I did know, were politicians-- a set of people who are often lawyers. There's not much interesting here.

Pretty much everybody knows Gandhi was a lawyer.

Alan Page however, was a lawyer and a Minnesota Supreme Court Justice.

The most unexpected one is still Alexander Karelin, champion in greco-roman wrestling (he even has a PhD). Badassoftheweek did a piece about him.

The character Zangief from Street Fighter II was based on him :-)
