The second one is a young Elliott Carter I believe.
Geologist.

First one is Martinu, I think.

You might be right, Drasko... It's the hair, isn't it?

Yoda?

It's not. I'm not really sure if this is fair, because I doubt I would be able to guess him either.

Hint: He's still alive.

Hint: He was born in the US.
