CONGERS – With a heart-felt rendition of country singer Katie Armiger’s “Leaving Home,” Anthony Todaro of Clarkstown walked away with the top prize in ARC’s 10th Anniversary American Ideal ‘All-star’ singing competition on April 12. Todaro, who won “American Ideal” in 2011, competed against 13 other American Ideal winners from the past nine years. Todaro opened his performance by dedicating his song to his mother who passed away in 1992. He sang “Leaving Home” with high emotion and energy and added his own dance moves while signing all lyrics for the audience. His performance wowed the audience of nearly 300 people and impressed judges Bob Baird, former Journal News columnist and founder/president of Touching Bases; Diane Dimond, author and syndicated journalist, and Rockland Boulders new manager Jamie Keefe.
