Albert Anastasia (born Umberto Anastasio, September 26, 1902 – October 25, 1957) was one of the most ruthless and feared Cosa Nostra mobsters in United States history. A founder of the Italian American Mafia, Anastasia ran Murder, Inc. during the prewar era and during most of the 1950s was boss of what would become the modern Gambino crime family. He is perhaps the most feared hit-man of the Italian American Mafia's golden era, earning the infamous nicknames "the Mad Hatter" and "Lord High Executioner."
Albert Anastasia was born on September 26, 1902, in Tropea, Calabria, Italy. His parents were Raffaelo Anastasio and Louisa Nomina de Filippi. The family name was "Anastasio", but Albert started using "Anastasia" in 1921.
Raffaelo Anastasio was a railway worker who died after World War I, leaving behind nine sons and three daughters. Albert's brothers included Salvatore, Frank, Joseph, Gerardo, and Anthony Anastasio. Anastasia was married to Elsa Barnesi; they had one son, Anthony Anastasia, Jr. They would have another son and two daughters.

Plot: This is the telling of the life of organized crime boss, Meyer Lansky, as remembered by him as a very old man who is moving about the world looking for some country that will take him in since the US courts have put out an extradition order for him to stand trial. It tells of a young man growing up in the Jewish ghettos of America's big cities at the turn of the century and of his bright intelligence which he used for moving into crime. "I'm only a gambler," he claimed, "just like most all Americans." When asked by a reporter to comment on the killings that occurred under his leadership he declined, thereby making this film's thrust that of personalities and relationships rather than of acts of violence or the workings of corrupt deeds.

If you've ever dreamed of living in a home designed by a mobster, now you have your chance. The former home of Albert Anastasia Jr. will go up for auction on Dec. 8 with a starting price of $5.5 million. The home is on 1.3 acres in Fort Lee NJ with waterfront views of Manhattan.

Joe Gallo connut la prison pour la première fois à dix-sept ans, quand il fut condamné pour racket, attaque et séquestration. L'homme qu'il admirait le plus était le mafieux juif Meyer Lansky, le seul qui, selon lui, a su voir les changements qui allaient se produire dans le crime organisé. Né de parents Napolitains dans le quartier de Bath Beach, à Brooklyn, Gallo a hérité de son surnom ("le fou") parce que ses idées étaient en avances sur son temps. À l'instar de l'homme qu'il admirait, Meyer Lansky, il a vu le futur de la mafia, au-delà de Little Italy, ou Brooklyn, au-delà des quartiers italo-américains. Il y avait de l'argent à gagner à Black Harlem et d'autres quartiers afro-américains, et il voulait que ce soit la mafia qui gagne cet argent. Avec ses frères, Larry et Albert, Joe Gal...
