Daniel Rodriguez October 2, 2012

Daniel Rodriguez is an American operatic tenor from New York City. He became known as "The Singing Policeman" in his former work with the New York City Police Department, due to his role as one of the department's designated National Anthem singers. In the aftermath of the September 11th terrorist attacks, he received widespread attention with his rendition of 'God Bless America,' which he sang at memorial events and on television. This led to an offer of formal training from Placido Domingo. He has now recorded several albums, appeared in opera, in symphony concerts, and performs in support of numerous charities.
