In this brand-new multimedia presentation, I will trace the biography of Sinatra’s improbable life. We will look at his odd childhood as a skinny Italian street kid in working-class Hoboken, New Jersey. His father was a prizefighter turned saloon keeper; his mother was a hard-drinking suffragette and political power in Hoboken who also made a living by performing abortions. We will look at Sinatra’s bumpy road to stardom. His career had so many ups and downs! Frank Sinatra seemed unstoppable from singing with the Harry James and Tommy Dorsey big bands to being the idol of the Bobby Sox brigades in the early 1940s. But when he avoided serving in World War II and musical tastes began to shift, his career went into a steep decline that was only rescued by the help of the Mafia and his amazing performance in the movie “From Here To Eternity.”

The rest of the story is equally fascinating. It includes Swingin’ Sinatra, the Rat Pack, JFK, Marilyn Monroe, and civil rights. So are Lucky Luciano, Sam Giancana, Skinny D’Amato, Jilly Rizzo, and the Mafia.
