Sting is the stage name of Gordon Sumner, the bassist and former lead singer of The Police until their breakup in 1983.

Born in 1951 in England.

He played the part of Feyd-Rautha in David Lynch's film Dune. He also appeared in Guy Ritchie's movie Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.

It is unclear whether he was serious when he referred to himself as "manic-depressive". He has however, written a song entitled "Lithium Sunset", which appears to refer to lithium carbonate, a treatment for the disorder.

Honorary degree from Berklee College of Music: May 1994.
