That's a rather difficult question. I'd choose anyone who lived a long life, was successful, and lived a happy life. I don't know how many historical figures lived like that though.
Maybe Pablo Picasso. He did live during tough times, but I really admire his art.
Maybe Neil Armstrong during the moon landing
