Here is a story I stumbled upon on Newsday.com about Patti LuPone, complete with video of her visit to downtown Northport that made me feel all warm and cozy inside about my hometown. (Well, East Northport, actually. But same general idea.)
Edie Falco also went to Northport High, as did one of her co-stars on "The Sopranos," Bobby (Dr. Cusamano) LuPone, who is Patti's brother. Small world.
My alma mater long has been known for its excellent work in the arts, including music and theater.
