Inquiry: James Kaplan: FRANK: THE VOICE

Program: 
Date: 
Wednesday, November 17, 2010 - 1:59pm

Early on in his career, he was skinny as a rail and looked like a stiff wind would blow him over. But when he sang, all eyes were riveted on him. He was Frank Sinatra: “The Voice”. Tonight on Inquiry, we speak with novelist and non-fiction writer JAMES KAPLAN about his monumental and deeply entertaining biography FRANK: THE VOICE. Tune in and learn about Frank’s start with the Harry James Orchestra, his breakthrough years with Tommy Dorsey and finally his start as a major independent act with his hordes of swooning booby soxers and swooning adults too.
