    Correction: 1. Exact birth date is February 13, 1961. Correction 2. Philip Mauceri’s 3rd great-grandmother was possibly of Mexican ancestry. Third great-grandfather Gaspare Mauceri was married to Antonina Saladino (1787-1837) in Mexico.

    @follers

    is this guy a known writer?

    • jackson9 says:

      Okay fine. I won’t rub it in that I was right that he is Irish. I was right about Abigail Breslin being Jewish and we didn’t say, “he was right, lets get rid of Abigail’s profile from ethnic celebs!”

    • follers says:

      Bearboy should stop adding these people he personally knows, also including another writer he added a week ago, and his doctor (whose page was deleted). Mauceri has about 16,000 Google hits, which is marginal, but many of them are for other people with this name.

      No picture, no Wikipedia page, etc.

        The page you deleted was a marine biologist not a personal physician and yes I apologize for adding her. But 1. Is Philip really not a celebrity though? and 2. Is Brian Kemp a celebrity, honestly I am not sure at this point anymore?

    Was him your teacher?

    Not sure if he fits in the “celeb” category.

    • jackson9 says:

      His exact birthday is February 13th 1961 and should say Irish

      • andrew says:

        He is not Irish by any means, Census records are quite clear

        “Peralta” is also a surname who was brought to Sicily by the Aragonese rulers in 1300s. Mauceri/Maugeri, Giarraputo and Curatolo are Sicilian surnames too.

          Celebrities like to lie then! I can’t blame them I used to tell everyone I was Ethiopian Jewish when really I am Irish + Norwegian. I told my girl friend about how I read all this celebrities books and she would say “can we talk about ANYTHING else???” then I would say “Don’t you realize we’re both part leprechaun/Irish?” and of course Philip was lying :(

            is Neiltennant your pusher?

            Andrew he is Irish. Go to his house give him a DNA test and he will show Irish ancestry. It is also a great way to connect with our childhood idols!

    Best author! If you have a child age 3-15 wanting a Christmas/Chanukah/Kwanzaa present this winter get them The Peruvian Labyrinth and they will never stop thanking you. Really an underrated celebrity. I think he is part Irish.
