Lee Bennett Hopkins: Hello, my name is Lee Bennett Hopkins. When my parents were married in the late 1930s, they listened to a band called the Jan Garber Band. One of the lead singers was Lee Bennett. When they decided to have me, whether it was a boy or a girl, they were going to name me Lee Bennett, after Lee Bennett the male singer on the band. Happy reading.
