The stepson of the famous yacht builder Sidney Davies, and descendant of the illustrious Bracker brothers; German immigrants who came to the United States at the turn of the 20th century and were made a name for themselves in the midst of mobsters, crooked police, and all the other entanglements of Prohibition era Bronx. John Bracker's life is the story of the American dream; hardship in the face of adversity, overcoming the personal demons of alcoholism and the death of his mother at a young age.
