I'm not going to do this. It's entirely too frightening. And anyhow I KNOW it'll tell me I'm half Doris Day and half Louis Rukeyser. It's much more interesting to hear who people have been told they look like. I've been told each of these more than once in my adult life: Hayley Mills, Arlo Guthrie(!), Diane Keaton, a tropical fish, Nicole Kidman, Raymond Burr(!!!), Jenny Agutter(sp?), and yes, Louis Rukeyser.

My closest match was Dalida (at 51%), followed by Gillian Anderson (at 41%) and Julianne Moore (at 40%). (Yeah, I get that all the time. Has anyone seen my picture? Not.) ;) Disturbingly, my fourth perfect face match was the very male Polish poet and essayist Czesław Miłosz.
And you, Joseph, look like Rutherford B. Hayes (66%), Thomas Klestil (65%), Frank Sinatra (63%) (sing it, Joe!), Patrick Stewart (61%), Dennis Quaid (61%), Hugh Grant (60%) and George Michael (59%).
Quite an impressive roster there, Joe.
