SUMMARY:The Swinging\, Controversial Life Of Frank Sinatra - Part Two
DESCRIPTION:Frank Sinatra was one of the most charismatic and controversial American entertainers of all time. \nHe was one of a kind!  \nClick here to read about his impressive record on Civil Rights. \nIn 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\, Marty\, was a prizefighter turned saloon keeper; his colorful and ambitious mother was a hard-drinking suffragette and political power in Hoboken who also made a living by performing abortions. \nWe will examine 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.” \n \nThe rest of the Frank Sinatra story is equally fascinating. \nIt 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. (Click here to read about how Peter Lawford connected Sinatra to JFK !)In this one-of-a-kind presentation filled with video clips\, amazing anecdotes\, and insightful analysis\, we will look at all sides of the one and only Chairman of the Board\, Frank Sinatra. \n
