James August Gabriele Jan 10, 1910 - Oct 26, 2009 Queens, New York, USA

NOBODY called him August. Everybody called him "Jimmy." He looked like Gene Kelly and he could sing and play the piano and write songs. His first wife left him and took the children and settled in Iowa. His second wife AND their son George became Jehovah's Witnesses and they both committed suicide. The son gave his entire inheritance to the Jehovah's Witnesses and when he was financially destitute they wouldn't help him, so he killed himself too. So my uncle was really depressed.

For fifty years I have been a Document Examiner and that is how I earn my living. For over 50 years I have also been a publicist for actors, singers, writers, composers, artists, comedians, and many progressive non-profit organizations. I am a Librettist-Composer of a Broadway musical called, "Nellie Bly" and I am in the process of making small changes to it. In addition, I have written over 100 songs that would be considered "popular music" in the genre of THE AMERICAN SONGBOOK.
My family consists of four branches. The Norwegians and The Italians and the Norwegian-Americans and the Italian Americans.
