Everything you need to know about the Entertainer. Regarded by many as the greatest popular singer of the 20th Century, he was nicknamed "The Voice", "Ol Blue Eyes" and "Chairman of the Board". Born Francis Albert Sinatra in Hoboken, New Jersey, the son and only child of an Italian immigrant fireman, his mother Dolly was a midwife. Legend has it that one day he heard Bing Crosby singing and decided this would be the career path he was to embark upon. His initial break came in 1935, when he received first prize in a radio contest. He eventually caught the attention of bandleader Harry James, resulting in their collaboration, which included his first recordings in 1939 and moved onto the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra with whom he recorded the hit "I'll Never Smile Again" (1941).
His breakthrough role as an actor would be his playing the doomed Angelo Maggio in the Oscar-garnered "From Here to Eternity" (1953), for which he received an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor and earned respect as an accomplished dramatic performer. This was followed by "Guys and Dolls" (1955), "The Man With the Golden Arm" (1955, which earned him an Oscar nomination for Best Actor playing heroin addict Frankie Machine), "The Joker Is Wild" (1957), "Pal Joey" (1957) and "The Manchurian Candidate" (1962). His singing career was also back on track, this time with a richer vocal style heard in the hits "In the Wee Small Hours" (1956), "Come Fly With Me" (1956), "Nice n' Easy" (1960), "My Way" (1969) and "Theme From New York New York" (1980). By the end of the 1950s, he had divorced Ava Gardner and established an exclusive circle of friends unofficially called "The Rat Pack", which included Dean Martin, Sammy Davis, Jr., Peter Lawford and Joey Bishop (among the films they starred in are the original "Ocean's Eleven" (1960) and Sergeant's 3" (1962), becoming a bill-topping act in Las Vegas. During this period, Sinatra established the Reprise record label. He received Grammy Awards for the singles "It Was a Very Good Year" (1966) and "Strangers in the Night" (1967), also for the albums "September of My Years" and "A Man and His Music" (1967). While filming "Von Ryan's Express" (1965), he met actress Mia Farrow, whom he married in 1966 (until 1968). He had a brief retirement during the early 1970s, only to return and marry Barbara Marx (who was formerly married to Zeppo Marx of the Marx Brothers) in 1976. In 1988, there would be a brief reunion and tour of the "Rat Pack" and during the 1990s more success with his "Duets" recordings. Not long after celebrating his 80th birthday in 1995, his health began to decline as he suffered a heart attack in November 1996 and a fatal one on May 14th, 1998.
