Former governor declares Tony Bennett Day
Tony Bennett celebrated his 95th birthday on September 29. New York Andrew Cuomo has declared the day as a celebration of this singer.
Cuomo noted that Tony Bennett had made a significant contribution to New York’s arts scene.
Tony is a New Yorker born and raised. He has been entertaining audiences for over six decades with his beautiful music. You can see him all around the city, whether he’s working on his latest painting in Central Park or talking to fans.
Tony Bennett, a true New Yorker, is the child of immigrant parents and has contributed to the community in many ways. I’m honored to declare August 3, 2021 ‘Tony Bennett Day,’ in New York.’”
