Although the town benefits from a position on a major navigable waterway, Middletown,s success is primarily due to the energy, creativity, and diversity of its people. These include James Riley, whose autobiography detailing his trials as a white slave in Northern Africa showed millions of Americans the evils of slavery; Max Corvo, who helped the World War II Italian underground defeat the fascist regime; and Christie Ellen McLeod, longtime chief pathologist at Middlesex Memorial Hospital. Middletown can boast of athletes such as Helen ,Babe, Carlson, a tremendously strong competitor who participated on men,s baseball teams; Willie Pep, who, while going for the world featherweight title, had a record of 134 wins and only one loss; and Corny Thompson, who sparked the University of Connecticut basketball program,s rise to national prominence. More notables include Allie Wrubel, a prolific songwriter and Academy Award winner for his song ,Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah;, Vivian McRae Wesley, a teacher, reading director, and leader of Middletown,s African American community; and Francesco Lentini, who was born with three legs and appeared in every major circus and carnival.
