Hint: Jazz Singer

And the answer is…. Tony Bennett.  Growing up with grandparents who were 100% Italian and spending a lot of time with them, I know Tony Bennett.  No, that’s not were my name came from, that’s another story.  And when I refer to Italian, I’m not talking Jersey Shore Italian.  I’m talking about traditional Italian.  It wasn’t Christmas unless Tony was ripping some classics.  Favorite TB song: The Best is Yet to Come.   Talk about 180 degrees from last week – Buster Douglas to Tony Bennett.

So is there any of the 5 PWD so far you didn’t know about?  If nothing else, I would bet you’ve learned a few more famous people with diabetes.  If there is someone you would like to see on GTPWD to try and stump the readers, just drop me an email at tony [at] bloggingdiabetes.com or use the contact form.
