from Wikipedia: "After his retirement from boxing, Graziano cohosted a short-lived series, The Henny and Rocky Show (1955) with famous comedian Henny Youngman. He was a semi-regular on The Martha Raye Show, as Raye's boyfriend. He appeared as a regular on the United Artists TV series Miami Undercover for its entire run, and appeared in several series and shows, including The Pat Boone Chevy Showroom, Car 54, Where Are You?, and Naked City. He portrayed Packy, an ex-boxer, in the 1967 film Tony Rome."
Graziano also wrote an autobiography titled "Somebody up there likes me." It was made into a movie starring Paul Newman released in 1956.
Paul Newman as Rocky Graciano - wonder how he felt about that. The only one of those shows I ever heard of was Car 54, where are you? and the Naked City - but I think what I saw was a movie. It was good - like a procedural drama before they got all played out. I didn't know they made a series out of it.
