Talk:Robert Hazard

Father
Was the opera-singer father of Robert Hazard (born Robert Rimato) Bert Rimato? I found his name in a chronology of Philadelphia opera from 1925-1949: http://www.frankhamilton.org/ph/ph1.pdf He only appears once in there, fwiw. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Qohen (talk • contribs) 05:12, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

To answer my own question, the answer appears to be yes -- Robert Hazard's father was jeweller and opera-singer Umberto "Bert" Rimato:

Expansion
This article needs a paragraph on his activity in the 1980s, the album releases, the band changes, and such. The Billboard bio and several of the other sources I've added should make that easier plsu I've found Google News to be an invaluable resource. - Dravecky (talk) 19:13, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
