Louis Albano
Louis Vincent "Captain Lou" Albano was an Italian-born American professional wrestler, manager and actor. He was active as a professional wrestler from 1953 until 1969, then he became a manager, until 1995.

Albano released his autobiography, Often Imitated, Never Duplicated, on July 20, 2008 through his website. The book includes a ...
