Well, to make a long story short, Donald Fagen is Jewish!

Since Donald Fagen's mother is Jewish, and in Orthodox Judaism and Conservative Judaism, those with a Jewish mother (or those who underwent a halakhic conversion) are considered Jewish, then that makes him Jewish. His father is Jewish too.

Donald Fagen (whose full birth name is Donald Jay Fagen) was born on January 10, 1948 in Passaic, New Jersey.

Fagen is best known as the co-founder, lead singer, co-songwriter, and keyboardist of the band Steely Dan.
