I grew up in Synagogue in the boys' choir. We didn't listen to music in the house; only at temple. Then I went to a mostly African American high school on the South Side of Chicago and joined a gospel choir.

I desperately want to see the day today and do the best I can not miss a shred of sunlight. It'll be over before I know it.

The great love of my life is music.

I'm active in PAX, which is a gun awareness organization. We treat gun safety as a public health issue.

If you're sick, watch funny movies.

People on both sides of any conflict believe they are right, whether it's on a TV show or in the real world.

My mom was a great cook and great baker all her life.
