Summary

One could be forgiven for thinking that today's All-Star might be on the lazy side when it came to his career, but Isaac Merritt Singer's 24 children and multiple secret families indicate a real passion for some parts of life. Stacie has the whole, weird story of the guy who brought sewing machines into Americans' homes for the very first time.
