Happy 100th birthday Benny Goodman!

#1 Post by J-h:n » Fri May 29, 2009 6:13 am

On May 30, 1909, Benjamin David Goodman was born in Chicago, the ninth child of twelve to parents David and Dora, poor Jewish immigrants from Russia. He would grow up to do fine things. Let's all celebrate his 100:th birthday on Saturday!
