Extractions: Romanticizing the Mafia: The Effects on the America That Cannot Let Go By Megan Sharp The following essay was awarded the first place, winning the essay contest sponsored by Stephen F, Austin's chapter of Phi Alpha Theta in Spring 2002. Megan Sharp is currently a junior at SFASU, majoring in Political Science. American's fascination took a critical turn with the publication of Mario Puzo's The Godfather The Mafia's withdrawal from the inner cities was the second phase of its fall. Like any organized criminal enterprise, the Mafia relied on tough street friends to survive.

Extractions: To the people of New York he was Bugsy Siegel, but to his face it was always "Ben" or "Mr Siegel" for fear of provoking his wild temper.

He was born into poverty and moved up through the criminal underworld to hold court between two strangely linked worlds of showbiz and organised crime. Born to Russian immigrant parents in the deprived Hell's Kitchen area of Brooklyn, NY in 1905, Benjamin Siegelbaum watched as his parents scraped for every cent they could get to survive, and he swore that he would not end up the same way.
