Harold George Bellanfanti, Sr.

from http://www.jweekly.com/article/full/63493/celebrity-jews1117/

Harry Belafonte’s autobiography, “My Song: A Memoir,” has just come out. In it, he discloses for the first time that his parents were of mixed race and that he is “one-quarter” Jewish. His mother was born in Jamaica, the child of a white, Scottish mother and a black father. His father also was born in Jamaica, the child of a black mother and Dutch Jewish father. This is all Harry says about his Jewish grandfather, whom he never met: “a white Dutch Jew who drifted over to the islands after chasing gold and diamonds, with no luck at all.”

Rem.: His father's name was likely Belinfante if he was from the Netherlands.
