Executive chef John Bordieri is photographed with a dish of calamari outside Iggy's Boardwalk restaurant Friday, June 7, 2024, in Warwick, R.I. This year, the "calamari comeback" chef might not be coming back. Bordieri became known as the "calamari ninja" for standing wordlessly, clad head-to-toe in black, and holding a platter of sauteed squid during a video roll call of states that nominated Joe Biden during the 2020 Democratic National Convention. But he now says he hasn't heard from state or national leaders about a repeat performance at this summer's party's convention in Chicago. (AP Photo/David Goldman)
