Something About Rob Zombie

Rob Zombie
A little bit more about one-time Haverhill resident Rob Zombie from leftfair.com:

Most people know Rob Zombie as a rock star, film director, and horror enthusiast. He has had a profound effect on American culture, both among the Evangelicals whom he makes nervous, and among the counter-culture, whom he inspires. Yet, his public image aside, Rob Zombie is a champion of of American Values.  Rob Zombie, born Robert Cummings Jr., was born to middle-class parents who, after years working in carnivals, settled down to raise Rob and his brother in the small, suburban town of Haverhill, Massachusetts. The boredom that Rob Zombie endured there pushed him to find escape through countless hours of television, through which he developed his fascination with horror movies.
Thus Rob:
"Do what you want with your life and don’t listen to anyone. The people around you always try and stop you because they are afraid that you will succeed."
