Lewis hosted a music show on 710 KTBS (now KEEL), owned six record stores in Shreveport and founded the Paula, Jewel and Ronn record labels. He was a cousin of longtime Elvis Presley drummer D.J. Fontana and Elvis was one of his regular customers at the record stores. Susie Q, a 1957 hit for Dale Hawkins and a 1968 hit for Creedence Clearwater Revival, was co-written by Hawkins and Robert Chaisson for Lewis's daughter Susan. They put Lewis's name on the credits so he would get a percentage of the royalties. Lewis was inducted into the Louisiana Music Hall Of Fame in 2009.

Dragoti was married to fashion model Cheryl Tiegs for nine years. He divorced her in 1979 because she was having an affair with a photographer. That same year, Dragoti directed Love At First Bite, a horror-comedy about Dracula moving to New York and chasing after a fashion model whom he thinks is a reincarnation of his first love. A fashion model and a fashion model -- purely coincidental.....I think.
