We continue this evening with dr. Rock positano who was a friend of joe dimaggio. His new book is called dinner with dimaggio, memories of an american hero. Heres a man who was unbelievably successful in his career. You know, created many things, created opportunities for people, yet at the end of the day he had heart, he had empathy.
