He is also a painter, having created works under the name Anthony Benedetto that are on permanent public display in several institutions.

Born and raised in Astoria to an Italian-American family, Bennett began singing at an early age. He fought in the final stages of World War II as a U.S. Army infantryman in the European Theater. Afterward, he developed his singing technique, signed with Columbia Records and had his first number-one popular song with "Because of You" in 1951. Several top hits such as "Rags to Riches" followed in the early 1950s. He then refined his approach to encompass jazz singing. He reached an artistic peak in the late 1950s with albums such as The Beat of My Heart and Basie Swings, Bennett Sings. In 1962, Bennett recorded his signature song, "I Left My Heart in San Francisco". His career and his personal life experienced an extended downturn during the height of the rock music era.
Tony Bennett is an English academic who has also worked in Australia. Bennett is an important figure in the development of the Australian approach to cultural studies known as "cultural policy studies."
His works include The Birth of the Museum, a study of the birth and cultural function of the modern museum, and Outside Literature. He is professor of sociology at the Open University in the UK, and Director of the Economic and Social Science Research Centre on Socio-Cultural Change.

Tony Bennett (born August 22, 1984) is an American professional basketball player who currently plays for the Windsor Express of the National Basketball League of Canada (NBL). He was part of an Express team that won the championship in 2014–15. Bennett was a Premier Basketball League All-Star in 2010 and an Independent Basketball Association All-Star in 2012. He played college basketball for the Bradley Braves and led them to a Sweet 16 appearance in the 2006 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament. Prior to that, Bennett attended George Westinghouse College Prep in Chicago, Illinois.
On May 8, 2015, Bennett was suspended indefinitely from the Windsor Express and the National Basketball League of Canada following a pre-game altercation in the 2015 NBL Canada Finals, after which the Halifax Rainmen forfeited Game 7. His team was awarded the championship, but his head coach Bill Jones received a one-year suspension and a $4,000 fine. Even more suspensions were faced by the Rainmen, including those of Kevin Young and Cliff Clinkscales.
Through the Eyes is the first major label studio album by the rock band Flaw. It was released in 2001 on Universal Records/Republic Records. The album debuted at #119 on the Billboard 200 chart. The songs "Only the Strong", "Payback", "Inner Strength", "Out of Whack", "Scheme", "Amendment", "Reliance", "Away", "No Time" and "One More Time" were all re-recorded from the band's previous independent releases American Arrogance, Flaw and the Drama EP. The song "My Letter" is a revised version of "Anorexia" from American Arrogance. One song from Flaw's 1998 album Flaw, "Fall Into This", was meant to be on the album, but was rejected by Universal Records.
The album produced two singles. "Payback" would serve as the album's lead single in the summer of 2001, backed by a music video, while "Whole" followed as a second. The opening track, "Only the Strong," was also featured in the Scorpion King soundtrack. "Payback" was also a featured song on their older material before their underground success and Nik Houpt provided the drums. "Get Up Again" was featured on the soundtracks for UFC 2009: Undisputed and xXx, respectively.

Tony Bennett is the former Florida Commissioner of Education and the former Indiana Superintendent of Public Instruction.
Bennett received his Doctor of Education and Indiana Superintendent's License from Spalding University in 2005; his Certification in Secondary Administration and Supervision from Indiana University Southeast in 1994; his Master of Science in Secondary Education from Indiana University Southeast in 1988; and his Bachelor of Science in Secondary Education from Indiana University Southeast in 1984.

Anthony John Stuart Bennett (commonly known as Tony Bennett, born 7 September 1947) is an English former political candidate and current campaigner. He was a member of the British political party Veritas and was listed on the database of the Electoral Commission as official leader for three days, before the real leader was revealed as Robert Kilroy-Silk.
In 2006, he began a private prosecution against Michael Barrymore for alleged drugs and drink offences committed on the night Stuart Lubbock was found dead at the entertainer's home. Bennett co-wrote a book with Terry Lubbock, the father of Stuart Lubbock, Not Awight: Getting Away With Murder, explaining their theory that Stuart Lubbock died as a result of a violent attack on him which Barrymore and his associates that night covered up. He has also campaigned against the parents of Madeleine McCann, who disappeared while on a family holiday in Portugal in 2007. He asserted that they should have been prosecuted for child neglect and accused them of covering up what happened to their daughter, a charge which ultimately led to the family successfully pursuing legal action against him.

Tony Bennett is a popular American singer who performs in pop and jazz genre. His childhood can’t be called the best one as he lost his dad and had to leave school to help the family with money. He started working as a waiter-singer in an Italian restaurant and there he was noticed by Pearl Bailey who asked him to sing during one of the shows. At that same show he caught the attention of Bob Hop and that is how his professional career as a singer started. It was interrupted when he went serving in the army, yet as soon as he came back, he went on with pursuing the biggest dream of his life. His songs were on top of the charts and were immediately becoming hits. At a certain stage he broke the contract with Columbia and failed trying to do everything on his own.

There was a man
Looked up to Heaven
And he said, “Lord, what good am I?
I feel so unimportant that it makes me want to cry.
What should I do, Lord? Please answer me.”
The Lord said, “Sure son, I’ll tell you what to be:
The best thing to be is a person.
Just a person who loves is fellow man.
The best thing to be is a person.
Just a person who does the best he can.”
The Lord said, “You can be a big man,
And I can tell you where to start.
Just let the world around you
Know the love that’s in your heart.”
The Lord said softly, “Listen to me.
There’s only one thing that I want you to be.
The one thing to be is a person.
Just a person who does the best he can.”
