Some Famous People called Tommy Tucker
Tommy Tucker (bandleader)
Gerald L. Duppler (May 18, 1903 – July 11, 1989), better known under his stage name Tommy Tucker, was an American bandleader.
The Tommy Tucker Orchestra entertained many listeners as a big band in the 1930s and 1940s. Popular as a dance band, the Tucker orchestra played concert halls, theatres, hotels and various venues across the country—for a span of 25 years. Recorded for Okeh in June 1941, his biggest hit, "I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire", achieved status as a Gold Record. Tucker wrote his own theme song, "I Love You (Oh, How I Love You)"; it was published on four record labels, including Brunswick, in 1935, and MGM in 1951.
Many listeners were familiar with the Tucker orchestra sound because they tuned into popular radio shows, such as Fibber McGee & Molly in 1936 and the George Jessel show in 1938, and several shows billed as Tommy Tucker Time. In 1941, Tucker led the orchestra for a New York City version of the Pot o' Gold radio program, which was simulcast on three stations. Tucker opened each performance—on radio or live—with his signature "tic-toc, tic-toc, it's Tommy Tucker time." And he usually ended each session with Time to Go.

Wyatt Thomas Tucker Sr. (born May 25, 1950) is an American politician and former Republican state senator in the state of North Carolina. He served as co-chairman of the North Carolina Senate's State and Local Government Committee. Senator Tucker has been accused of the statement "I am the Senator, you are the Citizen, you need to be quiet," when responding to a citizen journalist's inquiry on North Carolina's Senatorial Rules and Procedures, though he said he was misquoted. In 2013 Sen. Tucker came under criticism for helping direct Rural Center funds to the development of a movie theater. In August 2017 Senator Tucker announced his intention to retire.
