I really prefer the “Personalities” who tried to avoid celebrity status, whose lives were about living for Hashem and being models for the rest of us:
Moshe Rabbeinu
Aharon HaKohen
Yehuda HaNasi
Rav Ashi: Redactor of the Gemara
The Vilna Gaon
The Chofetz Chaim
The Chazon Ish
Rav Steinaman, Shlita
Moshe Feinstein, Z’TL
Rov Elyashiv, Z’TL
Rov Kanievski
Just several that I thought of that way outdo any “contemporary personalities” who claim to represent some lofty notions of government, but feed their own egos in the process.
