Description

Imagine for a moment that you're the son or daughter of a legend-maybe a recording artist or a sports figure-or in history, the offspring of a political leader or hero. Were these sons and daughters judged by their ability to live up to their parent's reputation and status?  Were they born with the same gifts?  Did their son or daughter status give them access to a world closed off by others? Did they try to follow their parent's footsteps- or reject their parent's reputation and try to follow their own path? In this two part special we'll cover the lives of some very interesting sons and daughters and answer some of those questions.In Part One: The daughter of world famous Indian musician Ravi Shankar, Geethali Norah Shankar, known to us today as Norah Jones; the son of Julius Caesar and Cleopatra known as Caesarian; the son the children of Frank Sinatra, specifically Nancy, Tina, and Frank Jr.;, the son of country music legend Hank Williams, Hank Jr.; the son of George Washington, Jackie Custis; and the daughters of world heavyweight boxing champions Joe Frazier and Mohammed Ali, Coming soon Part Two:  The only son of Pocahontas and John Rolfe, Thomas Rolfe,  the only son of Ben Franklin, William, a devout Tory; the daughter of Sigmind Freud, Anna, the children of Jacques Costeau, specifically Jean-Michel; Ann Jarvis, who gave us Mother;s Day, with the help of her daughter Anna; the son of Henry Ford, Edsel, and the daughter of Laura Ingalls Wilder, Rose, who convinced and helped her mom to write the Little House on the Prairie books.SUPPORT OUR SHOW MONTHLY AT PATREONBecome an Assistant Producer at 1001 Stories Network ( a great resume enhancement) and support us at Patreon today!
