Thanks for posting; great article.

I just wish that Who Do You Think You Are? would do a program on a celebrity with Italian Ancestry? I think a program on Bruce Springsteen whose Mom's heritage is from the Naples area and/or on his wife Patti Scialfa whose Dad has Sicilian roots would be a winner. You'd think with the number of Americans who have Italian ancestry that the producers would do one program on someone with Italian roots.

I would LOVE to see them do a show using a celebrity who has Italian Ancestry. Bruce Springsteen would DEFINITELY get my vote! Unfortunately they only do those who have some great historical or significant history which sort of makes sense for ratings but is sad for us 'normal' folk. _________________ nuccia Italian Surname Database Calabria Exchange
