Can you light a fire with starlight?

Anyone with a magnifying glass or a shaving mirror can light a fire by focussing sunlight into a spot on a piece of paper and burn a hole.

Can the same trick be done with starlight? If so what diameter of mirror or lens will be needed? And which star would be the best choice?
