This is a list of notable Belgian-Americans. However, the term Belgian-American is here used in a very liberal way: It includes not only Americans of Belgian descent and Belgians who took American citizenship (Belgian-Americans in the strictest sense), but also Americans born in Belgium, Belgians born in the USA, Belgians who lived for a considerable period of time in the United States and vice-versa. All, however, would describe themselves as Belgian-Americans. A brief bio beside each entry helps to clarify in which of these categories each individual falls.

Sure, the 1950s ideal world would be wonderful. But knock on the nations doors: Ozzie and Harriet are seldom at home.” |
