About Me

Jackie
My late father, who was known to his friends as Tommie O'Leary, was a friend of Frank Sinatra's (in fact, he attended Sinatra's last wedding). For years, my Dad worked as a bartender at a downtown Chicago restaurant, called Binyon's. Later, he opened his own restaurant, called 'Tommie O'Leary 's Original Key Club' (you had to be a member to dine there). He was mentioned frequently by Chicago newspaper columnist, Irv Kupcinet (who was a frequent Key Club customer). My father also knew the legendary sportscaster, Harry Caray, who attended my brother's wedding.
