From Wikpedia Joseph Harry Fowler Connick, Sr. (born 1926) is a New Orleans attorney who is best known for serving as the district attorney of the Parish of Orleans, which contains the City of New Orleans, from 1973 to 2003. Connick is an Irish Catholic. His son, Harry Connick, Jr. is a successful singer, pianist, actor, and humanitarian. Like his famous son, the elder Connick is also a singer of some note, long performing a few nights a week at local clubs as a hobby.[citation needed] He has been outspoken on the use of narcotics and pressed for drug testing of high-school students.[citation needed] Since September 2003, he has also served on the board of directors for Psychemedics Corporation, a firm producing drug tests that use hair samples, rather than urine. Given his defense of withholding of evidence in the Thompson case, i don't think he should be on the board of Psychemedics. I reckon he takes his son's rendition of "It Had To Be You" a bit too seriously.
