Notable Italians and Italian-Americans. There are many good
sources of information about Italian-Americans who have achieved
great success in the arts, sciences and other endeavors, but one
excellent source is the compilation by the Dante
Alighieri Society of Massachusetts, Inc. They also have included
a list of the Italians and Italian-Americans who have won the Pritzker
Prize, a Nobel Prize, or the Fields Medal, three of the most prestigious
international awards in existence. Two other major national Italian-American
organizations also maintain comprehensive web sites containing useful
information on the
achievements of Italians and Italian-Americans. Readers are encouraged
to consult the web page of the Order
of Sons of Italy in America and the National
Italian-AmericanFoundation.
