A true New York Italian, Frank James Martorella was born in Brooklyn, New York on July 14, 1947. He was born to Gus and Louise Martorella. Gus was a New York City firefighter and Jazz pianist, and Louise was an Italian homemaker and culinary magician, able to make feasts from almost nothing at all. He grew up in a loving home with 4 siblings, Patty, Bobby, Joni, and Paul. He was a bit of a rascal – chasing fun and mischief, tormenting his sisters and creating countless stories and memories. With his best friends Billy and Russell by his side, he grew up street smart, a quality that served him well throughout his life.
