Family info: Joe Lieberman is an American politician. A Democrat and later an Independent, he served as the United States Senator from Connecticut (between 1989 and 2013), and was the Democratic Party’s nominee for Vice President in 2000. Joe Lieberman was the first Jewish nominee for Vice President on a major party’s ticket.

His father’s family were Polish Jews and his mother’s family were Austrian Jews.

Joe’s paternal grandparents were Jacob Lieberman and Rifka or Rebecca Segalovich. They were both Jewish immigrants from Poland.

Joe’s maternal grandparents were Joseph Manger (the son of Menasha Manger and Freyda) and Maly “Minnie” Sandhaus (the daughter of Benjamin Sandhaus and Frieda Teller). Joseph was a Jewish immigrant from Putilla, Bukovina, Austria, and Maly was a Jewish immigrant from Stansvsty, Austria. Joseph and Maly were also the maternal great-great-grandparents of actor Ricky Ullman, thus making Senator Joe Lieberman and Ricky Ullman first cousins, twice removed.
