Description

Although the earliest fans of Frank Sinatra (1915-98) were enthusiastic “bobbysoxers,” Sinatra shaped his vocal stylings by copying the tricks of jazz musicians. Placing a high priority on self-education, he was a born entertainer who succeeded in making the challenging leap to Hollywood, also becoming one of the most beloved balladeers of the 1950s. Sinatra ultimately eclipsed his earliest successes to become one of the most popular and influential musical artists of the 20th century.
