In my humble opinion, Ron stole the show at last year' s inaugural event. His Broadway credits include Showboat and Chicago. (For the movie minded, he played the parts assumed in the movies by Howard Keel and Richard Gere, respectively).

Want to sneak a listen of Ron's golden pipes? Click here: The album is The Musicality of Rodgers & Hammerstein. Ron performs Oh! What a Beautiful Mornin' from Oklahoma.
