What became of Calogero?

Did he grow up to be a mafioso, or did he become a bus driver...?

Also, what about Jane - do they remain together?

I'd like to think Calogero later became a bus driver as his father.

Or, given that it was a story based on the life of Chazz Palminteri (real name, Calogero Lorenzo Palminteri), perhaps "C" grew up to become an actor.

He became an actor who did a one man show that later became a movie based on his life growing up in the Bronx :)

I don't think he joined the mafia. I like to think he graduated from college, nothing fancy like Yale or Harvard, but maybe City College. Sonny wanted Calogero to stay in school, and Lorenzo was always warning his son about wasted talent.

He never had it in him to be a full Mafioso, he enjoyed the perks but didn't like being violent. He was probably a mixture of both, worked a normal job on minimal wage but probably did a bit of work for the gang too

Since it semi-biographical I would say the best route to find this out is to read up on Chazz Palminteri's life.
