4. Jodie Foster
The Academy-award winning actress is not only talented on the big screen, she’s also a very successful scholar we’re not surprised to find as one of the celebrity valedictorians. Foster was a gifted child who learned to read at the age of three. She graduated first in her class from the Lycée Français de Los Angeles, a French-language prep school. Then to escape the film business, Foster attended Yale University where she majored in literature and graduated with a B.A. in 1984. Little fun fact: Foster had already been nominated for an Oscar, for her role as a teenage prostitute in 1976’s Taxi Driver, when she was named her school’s top student.
