Born and raised in Detroit, Fanzone was introduced to baseball and the trumpet when he was just a small boy, and both have left a permanent mark on him. So much so that he was one of Central Michigan University's few students who was both an athlete and a music major.

After graduating, he spent several years playing for minor league teams before, in 1970, he was welcomed to the Boston Red Sox. His time with them only lasted for one season, though, and in 1971, he was traded to the Chicago Cubs, where he spent the next four seasons. All during this time, his trumpet was never far away. He even sought out nighttime gigs at Chicago nightclubs.

When his professional baseball career was over, music became his primary pursuit, a move that led to a two-year stint with the Baja Marimba Band, among other opportunities. Currently, Fanzone is married to the singer Sue Raney and works with the Los Angeles chapter of the American Federation of Musicians. He still practices trumpet every day.

As the story goes, one evening Grandma Nettie and her daughter Erma were invited over to their friend Helen's house for dinner. Grandma Nettie brought homemade wine and Mandel bread as a hostess gift. Nettie's friend loved the Mandel bread so much she kept pestering Nettie for the recipe. Finally Nettie wrote the recipe down. Tragically, Nettie was struck by a car as she got off the bus near her house. The year was 1965. I was 1 year old.

When Nettie passed away all of her recipes were lost. My Aunt Erma phoned her friend Helen, who still had what would be the only surviving recipe from Nettie, her recipe for Mandel bread. I grew up with a big family back east, and at family get togethers', Aunt Erma's contribution was always Mandel bread.

All these years later, my wife and I decided to turn the story in to a business. Aunt Erma's Old Fashioned Mandel Bread made it to its first grocery store this year at 'Whole Foods Market Beverly Hills,' and sold out in 1 day! We are working hard to grow the business to serve more stores.

I've always been fascinated with silent films because film and music are the two universal languages. My dream and prayer was to one day go to Hollywood and live among other like-minded film lovers....making meaningful movies and also making a difference in the world. In Modesto, I partnered with some friends in high school to make half a dozen short super8 sound films (not video - film) with the help of church friends and of course, family.

We got our first video camera in about 1988 and I took video classes in Junior College. I also managed to volunteer at the local cable station, appear in TV & print advertising and I even worked in the feature film Back to the Future 3. For a girl from nowheresville, having a big movie crew come to within 30 miles of my town was better than a dream! I worked for 19 days on location watching and learning how the 'big boys' make movies. I wore a 100 year old victorian dress complete with corset, bonet and high laced shoes (growing up watching 'Little House' really paid off!). If you 're a bride, I can give you great pointers on how to move gracefully in such a gown - practice, practice!

I went to Loyola Marymount University film school followed by a special semester in film studies. I also interned at Warner Brothers. After graduation, I moved to Toluca Lake, took a class at the American Film Institute, did office work at Disney and Script Supervising work on low budget films.

I taped my first wedding video in 1990 for my cousin Bonnie in Salem, Oregon. It was my gift to her. That was before digital video, in the days a analog linear editing. Back then, wedding videography was not the art-form it is today because of all the limitations of technology. Digital video cameras didn't really exist in variety until the millennium which is coincidentally when I got laid off from Disney (I was part of the Tokyo DisneySea themepark design team). I was then able to start my new business when digital video was the newest revolution.

In about 2004 there was a slow-down in Hollywood that brought a flood of talent into the event videography market. Suddenly there were 200 new video businesses where 30 had been. Live events are vastly different from features or television production because these are not actors and a church is not a set. It takes some special finess to shoot a wedding without making people feel uncomfortable about being on camera. In 2008, with all the talent available in Los Angeles, there's no such thing as just a wedding video anymore.

Gone are the days of cheesy video when you hired a guy just because he had a big camera. High Definition technology is available to everybody now. My specialties are editing and camera operation - as they always have been - and although I miss the movie set, I really love making beautiful wedding videos. Each movie is a personal fairytale woven in magic.

He has appeared in such famous television shows as: 'Bonanza,' 'I Dream of Jeannie,' 'The Incredible Hulk,' 'Days of our Lives,' and 'Walker, Texas Ranger.' Movie roles include: Shoot Out with Gregory Peck, James Gregory, and Susan Tyrell, Cease Fire co-starring Don Johnson, The Todd Killings, Dark Knight of the Scarecrow, and American Eagle.

Recently, Robert Lyons appeared on the Emmy-nominated, TV series 'Cold Case,' and played a role in the 2006 action/drama movie Cut Off. With over 100 movie and television roles in the last four decades, you 're sure to recognize Robert Lyons and his movie-star smile the minute you see him.

Sue was born Raelene Claire Claussen on June 18, 1940, in McPherson, Kansas, and her career started very early. 'I came from a musical background for my mother was a singer and my great great aunt had been in German opera. When I was about four my mother realized that I could sing. My first public appearance was at a party in Wichita, Kansas when I was five.'

Unable to find a voice teacher for her daughter at that time (due to her extreme youth), Raney's mother (who later in life became a vocal teacher) took voice lessons herself and then passed what she learned down to Sue.

'Early on I sang the hits, tunes that the girl singers in the big hands were performing. While growing up in the 1950 's. I first listened to Doris Day, Patti Page, Rosemary Clooney and Kay Starr. I discovered jazz when I was 16 or 17 and of course soon loved Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan.'

After working steadily in New Mexico and taking several trips out to Los Angeles during a couple of summer vacations, Sue Raney joined the Jack Carson radio show in 1954. 'That is why the family moved out to Los Angeles. I had auditioned for Frankie Laine and made a couple of demos for his office. It was through him that I ended up on the Jack Carson show. It was one of the last major radio programs on CBS and at 15 I was the teenager on the show for nine or ten months. After Jack Carson I started appearing on Ray Anthony 's television program and then became the vocalist with his hand when he played the Palladium. When I was 19, I put an act together and started working on the road.'

She was already an established singer when most young girls were making a rather awkward transition from Elvis Presley to Clearasil. It took time to polish her vocal talent. There were ups and downs, good breaks and bad ones. There was the time in Australia when the critics banged nothing but praise out of their typewriters and the crowds came early and stayed and stayed and stayed. Then, for a time, things couldn't be better, She completed her third album for Capitol Records and was swamped with hotel and night club bookings as well as offers for various television appearances.

Unfortunately, an auto accident crumbled the classic stairway to stardom. Bedridden for months, Sue faded out of the musical picture. But no one seemed to forget. With the help of crutches, she made an appearance on Johnny Carson 's 'Tonight Show,' and became an instant hit.

In the 1960 's Sue Raney worked with the Four Freshmen at Las Vegas, toured with her own group, and appeared frequently on television variety shows including those of Red Skelton, Dean Martin and Danny Kaye. During the following decade she became active in the studios where her impressive voice helped sell products. But when asked to name her favorite gig, Sue Raney says 'Possibly the highpoint of my life musically was when I toured with Michel Legrand in the 1980 's. We worked with symphony orchestras in addition to having a self-contained rhythm section. I had a chance to sing Michel 's lovely songs and it was wonderful.' Of her own personal recordings she says, 'I think the trio of records that I made for Albert Marx, on Discovery in the 1980 's are the ones that I am most proud of. I also like the Henry Mancini tribute Dreamsville that I did with Alan Broadbent.' Sue is also an accomplished songwriter, contributing lyrics to several songs including Statue Of Snow.

These days Sue Raney is quite active as a voice teacher.'I 've been teaching since the early 1980 's, originally at the Dick Grove school and now privately nearly every afternoon. It is very rewarding. Teaching has allowed me to relearn what I thought I knew and explore new areas. I find that I 'm now in better shape vocally than I 've ever been. I sing with the L.A. Voices and Supersax, occasionally appear at the Moonlight Tango Cafe in Sherman Oaks near Los Angeles with Bill Watrous ' big band and still go on the road when it feels right and it is artistically rewarding.' When asked about her future goals, Sue Raney replied, 'I 'd like to record a duet album with Alan Broadbent. But basically I just want to keep on doing what I 'm doing, singing the music I love.'

John 's debut CD, 'Moon and Sand' was released on the Max Jazz label on August 1st, 2006. It has received glowing reviews, and even earned him an opportunity to be a guest on the Marian McPartland Piano Jazz radio program on NPR.

'I 'd highly recommend Toomin and Bieber 's office. The staff is very friendly, and Dr. Bieber is the real deal. I really appreciate their preventive dental approach, and the personalized attention you receive on each visit is fantastic!'

Originally from St. Paul, Minnesota and a graduate of Northwestern University near Chicago, Illinois, Charley now resides in Los Angeles, but with a fairly hectic travel schedule. He thanks Doctors Bieber and Toomin for always being so accommodating to his rather unpredictable schedule and for making sure he's proud to smile in whatever part of the world he happens to be in.

His sessions with Dr. Bieber are as much social events as dental, because of their mutual interest in movies and similar perceptions and values. Of course, it's sometimes difficult for Jules to hold up his end of the conversation with his mouth wide open.

Jules' first computer enabled him to discover the joys of computer programming and he writes code in Visual Basic, HTML, ASP and dithers about in a few others, including javascript. He has exhibited some of his photography and digital imagery at several art venues.
