Jon Bon Jovi
Jon Bon Jovi Jon Bon Jovi is an American musician, singer, songwriter, and actor, best known as the lead singer and founder of Bon Jovi. Throughout his career, he has released two solo albums and eleven studio albums with his band which have sold over 200 million albums worldwide. Jon Bon Jovi was born John Francis Bongiovi, Jr. in Perth Amboy, New Jersey the son of two former Marines, barber John Francis Bongiovi, Sr. and florist Carol Sharkey. He has two brothers, Anthony and Matthew. His father was of Sicilian and Slovak ancestry and his mother was of German and Russian descent. He has stated that he is a blood relative of Frank Sinatra. He spent summers in Erie, Pennsylvania, with his grandparents as a newspaper salesman. As a child, Bon Jovi attended St. Joseph High School, in Metuchen, New Jersey, during his freshman and sophomore years. He later transferred to Sayreville War Memorial High School in Parlin, New Jersey. // 1 / 9 Jon Bon Jovi Bon Jovi spent most of his adolescence bunking school to opt for music activities instead, and ended up playing in local bands with friends and his cousin Tony Bongiovi, who owned the then famous New York recording studio, The Power Station. As a result, his academic records displayed less than spectacular achievements and poor grades. By the time he was 16, Bon Jovi was playing clubs. It was not long before he hooked up with keyboardist David Bryan (real name: David Bryan Rashbaum), who played with him in a ten-piece rhythm and blues band called Atlantic City Expressway. -

Chatting with the Stars: Stephanie J. Block with a Score by Dolly Parton
Chatting with the Stars: Stephanie J. Block With a score by Dolly Parton, the new Broadway production of 9 to 5: The Musical has been delighting audiences at Broadway’s Marquis Theatre since it began previews this spring. Stephanie J. Block plays Judy Bernly, the downtrodden secretary originated in the similarly titled film by Jane Fonda. Block is no stranger to Broadway audiences or to theatregoers across North America. She created the role of Elphaba for the first national tour of Wicked, a role she recently reprised in New York. On Broadway she has also been seen in The Boy from Oz and The Pirate Queen. The afternoon before 9 to 5: The Musical’s official opening night, she sat down in her dressing room with correspondents Ben Pesner and Sam Corbett to chat about her career and upcoming solo CD. Q: Talk a little bit about Dolly Parton as a Broadway composer. Stephanie J. Block: Dolly comes from the Tennessee mountains. That’s what she’s familiar with, but she’s such a musician in every sense. If one were to say, “Write a song for this character,” or, “Write a song for this plotline,” or “Write a song for this experience,” she will do it quickly and beautifully. Or if one were to say, “These lyrics don’t quite feel like they’re moving the story along,” or “This doesn’t quite feel like the voice of the character,” she will walk away, grab whatever’s there--a napkin, a paper plate--and she’ll just start writing. -
