Was he a vegetarian?
I don't see any source that says he was or was not, but I'm afraid I do have to count this is a question because my answer rules out people who were notably vegetarian and those who were notably non-vegetarian. And I'll go further and say that he is not notably for his diet in any regard.

ANSWERS / KNOWN FACTS:
1. Male.
2. Native English speaker.
3/4. Died since 1950.
5. Not notable for any particular diet.

INCORRECT GUESSES:
Hulk Hogan (Jamiet99uk).

Clarification request.

Sorry for displaying a feature of a language nazi, but I'd like to make sure that 'died since 1950' means 'died after 1950'?

My question was "before 1950," so I'm assuming 1950 and later.
