Is awesomeness in your DNA?

I wonder... is awesomeness in your DNA?  It must be in some cases because Judy Garland passed it on to Liza Minnelli.  I didn't even know Judy Garland was Liza's mother, but apparently so.  For all of you who don't know who Judy Garland is, you might recognize her as Wizard of Oz's Dorothy; and for all of you that are wondering who Lize Minnelli is, you might of seen her in the film production of the Broadway Musical Cabaret which she played Sally Bowles, or for her musical talents, you might own her record The Singer.<Liza Minnelli<Judy Garland
