Hey guys/cousins

I'm talking to a producer at The View about a possible segment on the Global Family Reunion. I'd love to know if there's a connection to any of the four hosts, if anyone has interest in researching. So far, I don't see any links. Well, actually there is a link to Whoopi, but it's through her ex-partner Ted Danson, which I'm not sure the producers would count as family, since they didn't have kids (at least I don't think they did).

Anyway, here's the list...

Rosie O'Donnell

Whoopi Goldberg

Rosie Perez

Nicolle Wallace (with two L's)

I know Rosie was married to a Jewish man briefly. Seth Zvi Rosenfeld.

Thanks!

Lists 3 spouses, 1 child... I don't want to be the creator of any living profiles.

Yes, I'll try and get the living persons entered with correct privacy. If I remember correctly who daughter married & there's at least one grandchild.

I'll also get some "tree starters" going for Perez & Wallace.

Thank you all! This is great. And say hi to Ted for me Michael -- I'm a fan!

We might be able to find a shorter path; there's a Jewish family in her 3rd cousin Bridget Moynahan 's tree (the Wyoming cattle rancher branch)

FYI, still trying to find a better family connection for Whoopi. Feel free to work off what I've got.

I've seen the work you're putting in, Jonathan, it's great.

We've been expanding the Dutch American ex husband's tree, it leads some interesting places.
