grandfather. At the age of sixteen, his song "Little Star" propelled
his band, The Elegants, into international
fame. However, he only produced two minor hits afterwards, "Little Boy
Blue" and "Goodnight". He continues performing around the country as
the only original member of 'The
Elegants'
and has done acting, as well as composing on the side. He is divorced
with three children, Vito, Jack and Deanna. He also has twins Anthony and Steve.
