Akron, Ohio

There's a great scene in the latest Coen Brothers film 'Inside Llewyn Davis' where the main character is driving a car he's hitched a ride with and is sharing the driving on while the driver nods off oblivious in the passenger seat on the highway bound for New York. Llewyn sees a fork in the road heading off to Akron Ohio where a former flame of his resides. He knows she's just given birth to his child. There's a moment in time when it seems quite clear that he's bound to veer off on the fork towards an alternative destiny. Instead he pushes his foot on the pedal and heads straight ahead. His loss. Here are some Akron, Ohio alumni.
