Borges, he is a spanish novelist very famous over here ..
Ok, I don't think you care much about this answer, but I thing maybe you are asking for people famous in other field besides physics that had a degree on it, huh?; like the writter of Alice in Wonderland who was a matematician for example;I've heard about the prime minister in Germany also ...I really don't know much; I'll put your question on my watch list.
