She was a Manchester Baby from day one, being born to Norman '23 and Grace Wine in College Hospital during the afternoon of what was both Easter Sunday and April Fool's Day, 1923. Madonna went on to become an outstanding musician and educator. She is remembered as a devoted teacher and a second "mom" to many students. She is also remembered for the outstanding productions of Broadway Musicals she directed while at Kettering Fairmont East High School. A former student, Bill Jacobs, made this touching video tribute to Mrs. "G." Bill Jacobs was a student of Madonna's in the 1970's. He played King Arthur in the high school's production of "Camelot." Through Madonna's contacts in New York City, Bill was able to wear Richard Burton's kingly tunic from the Broadway show. In remembering this honor, he said that, "You could almost smell the bourbon on the sleeves." Bill entered college and graduated with a degree in cinematography from Southern Illinois University at Carbondale and went to work for the motion picture production company, producing national and regional television commercials and corporate pieces. his award winning work allowed him to quickly rise up the ranks. From his tenure at Paramount Pictures in Hollywood Bill branched out to develop his own company, Shooting Star Creativeworks. He has fine tuned his talents as a producer, director, writer, editor, animation and graphics designer, and musical composer of animation and video and in 2008 works out of his own studio in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. | | Archivist Note | Digital copy produced by Manchester University's Information Technology Services circa 2017.
