He's about to embark on his ambitious one-man Mark Twain show, and soon enough Val Kilmer will also be a doctor, courtesy of William Woods University! Kinda. "It’s embarrassing if you have a brother with a real doctorate. [Laughs.] I called him up without thinking — I was so excited! — and said, 'You won’t believe it! They called me out the blue. I’m going to be just like you! Dr. Kilmer.' There was a long pause, and I immediately realized what a mistake this phone call was." [Vanity Fair]
