mine form the living people today would be.. a guy who is not popular but very smart, modest, once you know him you know he can be much much more than where he is. A guy who knows, but he doesn't speak so that you wont feel that you are over your head. He has a whole set of vocabulary but he speak normally so you wont feel stupid. He surpass you in every field however you live your whole life never knowing. He never speak about his past nor his achievements for that he did it for him self and him self only. You tell him: you can be much more. he replies: I'm happy. and: he is find me this guy he is a living model
I admire a lot of people, but not enough to consider them role models, if that makes sense. Anyway. Tina Fey, Craig Ferguson (both of their autobiographies are superb and they're both funny as hell.) Also some gay politicians such as Harvey Milk and George Moscone. A few musicians and biologists here and there.
