Need to know: Romanians in history and culture

Big names associated with or from Romania:
As I gather more information, I will add to the entry.

Personal:

• Nancy's cardiologist. Went to Romania recently on a legacy tour with his sons to see where his father practiced medicine before WWII. He established a Jewish clinic, but because of the discrimination of the day, could not get appropriate licenses to operate. When Russia took over that part of Romania, his father was sent to Siberia where he remained for the duration of WWII. When released after the war, he immigrated to the US. So he says that being sentenced to Siberia saved his life.
