It's just occurred to me that there are some lawyers who have become quite popular and well-loved by some, but not for practicing law.

Peter Garrett is a lawyer, though he never took the wig. Instead he fronted on of Australia's better bands who sang about a lot of issues I care about. Pity he was a pretty inept polly.

John Cleese studied law at Cambridge and obtained a job in a law firm, which he never commenced as a small career in comedy got in the way. He was going to study science but realised he just didn't have that all-consuming drive that real scientists need.
