In a desperate flight from the pathos of being an Iona hoops fan, I turned to old reliable upbeat thoughts. He started as the fiddler "Pinky Pearl". This New Rochelle resident became world famous. Who was he?

Qs..........Many years when my daughters started college I had to work two jobs to make ends meet....Whenever I could I in any spare time drove a Taxi Cab for Blue Bird Taxi. The first time I picked him up in the Wykagyl section I did not know he was..I noticed he wearing a couple of scarfs around his neck..During are ride to the train station, he told me his name, and the scarfs were to protect his throat from the weather. During the next few years I developed a casual friendship with the great ''blue bird of happiness'' Jan Pierce....
