Director Tim Burton: Both Swimmer and Water Polo Player!

Let's get him back into swimming, US Masters Swimming, for it looks like he could use it! Tom Hanks is certainly a candidate too since one of the characters he plays is suppose to be an accomplished swimmer.

From Monsters and Critics:

But the 16-year-old Burton, who would go on to make waves at the box office, was actually a member of a league championship-winning team in his sophomore year at Burbank High School in LA.

The team won the Sophomore Water Polo Foothill League Championship, according to the school yearbook.

Burton appears to have been a talented swimmer very much at home in the pool.
