George John Lynch, Sr. (June 20, 1918–May 7, 1997) was an American race car driver.
George John Lynch was born in Miles City, Montana to John James Lynch and Violet Parks. Enduring a rough childhood that saw his parents divorce, he was reared by his mother's grandparents in Nekoosa, Wisconsin, where Lynch bought a used open-wheel race car for $100 and began racing, even before obtaining his civilian driver's license.
Lynch's racing career spanned three decades, from 1935 through 1957. He completed over 300 races, primarily in open-wheel "midget" and "sprint" cars on small tracks primarily in the midwestern United States. Lynch won few of his races but, in his own words, "pushed a lot of guys over the finish line." His aggressive driving style, characterized by bumping slower cars, earned him nicknames such as "Leadfoot Lynch" and "Red Devil."
George DeWitt Lynch III (born September 3, 1970) is a retired American professional basketball player who played in the NBA from 1993 to 2005. He holds the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill basketball record for most career steals.
Lynch was raised in Roanoke, Virginia, and played basketball at Patrick Henry High for coach Woody Dean. Lynch was part of the 1989 Virginia State Champion Team at Patrick Henry. For his senior year, he transferred to Flint Hill School, a prep school located outside Washington D.C. to better his chances at college prospects.
Into the Light is a short-lived musical about a physicist who attempts to determine the truth behind the Shroud of Turin. His quest for the truth eventually takes a toll on his relationships with his wife and son.
Synopsis
James Prescott, a physicist from Los Alamos, is attempting to prove (or disprove) the truth of the Shroud of Turin. James' obsession with this task strains his relationship with his wife (Kate) and his young son (Matthew).
