Famous Irish Americans

No matter where the Irish go, they leave a mark upon the society they settle into. The women and men listed here impacted upon American life in politics, arts, sports, business and crime. Some of these people were born in Ireland, others had a parent (or two) originating from there, however I feel that some of the links to their 'Irishness' is stretched thinly - how many generations do you need to go back?
