To answer your question, yes he is! Paul David Hewson, also known as Bono Vox, was born in Dublin in Ireland on May 10th 1960 and has been the lead singer of the band U2 since 1976. U2 has won 22 Grammy Awards to date, and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2005. Lauded by fans and critics as an outstanding performer and song-writer, Bono has also been praised by world leaders as an accomplished activist due to his powers of persuasion and knowledge of the issues. He travels extensively to give speeches and lobby politicians. Bono's career as a socially conscious musician has been shaped by childhood experiences in Ireland as well as volunteer work in Africa and South America. He married his teenage sweetheart Alison Stewart-Hewson on August 21st 1982 (she was also born in Dublin, Ireland on March 23rd 1961) whom he met was he was only 16 and she was 15. An accomplished activist in her own right, Ali Hewson once declined an invitation to run for President of Ireland because her husband "would not move to a smaller house". They live in Dublin with their two daughters, Jordan & Memphis Eve (!) and their two sons, Elijah Bob Patricius Guggi Q (!?), and John Abraham. What an amazing & unusual set of names, huh?
Does this satisfy your curiosity at all?
I certainly hope so!
Happy Holidays!
