List of The Sopranos characters in the Soprano crime family
Eli is the son-in-law of Jewish loanshark Hesh Rabkin and Lenora. Made collections for Hesh in Leotardo family territory in Mill Basin, Brooklyn in 2006. He seems to be an Orthodox Jew as he is seen wearing a traditional kippah and drives a Lincoln Town Car. He enjoys eating Chinese cuisine, something that Hesh frowns upon. He was attacked by Jimmy Lauria, a Leotardo associate, upon leaving a Chinese restaurant with Hesh – the Leotardo crew did not realize Eli had been acting on Hesh's behalf. They thought he was an independent loanshark who was trying to steal customers on their territory. He has a wife who comes to take care of him when hospitalized. Jimmy, Gerry, and another associate burned Hesh and Eli out of their car, hit Hesh and beat up Eli. Gerry tells Tony Soprano that he only attacked Eli because he swung at him. Eli fled into the street and was struck by a taxi in a hit and run. After Hesh loans Tony money, Hesh confides in Eli that he may just murder Hesh to clear him of the large outstanding debt Tony has with him.
He was hospitalized by the accident for broken ribs and internal bleeding. Phil pays Eli $50,000 for the injuries from the attack. Hesh mentions that he takes it upon himself to drive Eli to physiotherapy following the hit and run. He is seen later in the series walking with a cane.

Amy Heckerling
She graduated from high school in 1970, focused on directing and studying film at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts. Her father made just slightly over the cut-off for financial aid for the school, so Heckerling had to take out a large loan to cover her expenses. She claims this caused considerable stress in her life, and she was unable to pay them off until the end of her twenties. When Heckerling was in high school and focused on directing, her father was opposed to the idea, wishing that she had chosen a more practical aspiration. Despite this, he gave her Parker Tyler's book "Classics of the Foreign Film: A Pictoral Legacy". Heckerling pored over the book, marking off films that she had seen until she had eventually watched most of them. She claims that by the time she got to NYU, because of this book, she had seen almost all of the films that they had to watch in her classes. Though Heckerling considered her time at NYU to be a great time where she learned a lot and made great connections, such as Martin Brest and noted screenwriter and satirist Terry Southern who was one of her professors, she later reflects on her time at the school as sloppy and unprofessional, claiming that she used very low-quality equipment and had a lot of technical problems.

Convinced by his mother to study natural sciences instead of medicine, in 1862 he tried to study biology at the University of Würzburg, but the German academic session would not start by the end of the year. So he enrolled at Kharkiv University for natural sciences, completing his four-year degree in two years. In 1864 he went to Germany to study marine fauna on the small North Sea island of Heligoland. He was advised by the botanist Ferdinand Cohn to work with Rudolf Leuckart at the University of Giessen. It was in Leuckart’s laboratory that he made his first scientific discovery of alternation of generations (sexual and asexual) in nematodes and then at Munich Academy. In 1865, while at Giessen, he discovered intracellular digestion in flatworm, and this study influenced his later works. Moving to Naples the next year he worked on a doctoral thesis on the embryonic development of the cuttle-fish "Sepiola" and the crustacean "Nebalia". A cholera epidemic in the autumn of 1865 made him move to the University of Göttingen, where he worked briefly with W. M. Keferstein and Jakob Henle. In 1867 he returned to Russia to get his doctorate with Alexander Kovalevsky from the University of St. Petersburg. Together they won the Karl Ernst von Baer prize for their theses on the development of germ layers in invertebrate embryos. Mechnikov was appointed docent at the newly established Imperial Novorossiya University (now Odessa University). Only twenty-two years of age, he was younger than his students.

Eric Wolf
Wolf and his family moved to England and then to the United States to escape Nazism. Wolf went to the Forest School, in Walthamstow, Essex, for two years, where he learned English and became interested in science, in part because of the strong emphasis on science of the school's Canadian headmaster. Despite learning English only when he arrived at the school as a teenager, he won the school's English essay prize. Moving to England also made him aware of cultural difference in a new way. In 1940, Wolf was interned in an alien detention camp in Huyton, near Liverpool, England. The detention camp was a high stress environment. It was there that Wolf became exposed to the organizational possibilities of socialism and communism.

Edwin Roper Loftus Stocqueler
Edwin travelled from Bombay to England and back to Calcutta with his mother when he was three. In early 1836 they sailed to Liverpool on the "Bombay Packet", probably for Edwin to start school in England. The 1841 census shows that Edwin was at Rectory House School, Ealing which was said to have been as famous as Eton or Harrow and "the best public school in England". The reputation of this school could well be the basis for part of the incorrect assertion that he was “educated at Eton and Trinity College, Cambridge”. No evidence has come to light that Edwin, or indeed any preceding Stocqueler, attended Cambridge.

William S. Heckscher
Heckscher was commissioned in 1931 to paint a portrait of Gustav Pauli, the director of Kunsthalle Hamburg. While at work in Pauli's office, they were interrupted by a strange little man unknown to Heckscher. The man, apparently a colleague of Pauli, immediately launched into some Dürer problem that was troubling him. The stranger's animated discussion with Pauli left Heckscher astounded at the depth of the man's insight. Intrigued, Heckscher followed Panofsky to his office and all but begged to study under him. Panofsky was thoroughly unimpressed by Heckscher's education—he had never finished high school—but Heckscher persisted, and Panofsky eventually relented, telling him of a program to support gifted students who had not completed high school. Heckscher passed the rigorous examination and was accepted into the University of Hamburg, but was only grudgingly given a seat in the back of Panofsky's seminar.
