Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Frank Sinatra forever altered American art and culture. His life and work is mythified in countless books and essays. This book offers a much-needed fresh approach to The Chairman of the Board. Artists from all varieties of media have used Sinatra to create their own works and, in many cases, their own Sinatras--his shadow, his aura, and his mere existence helped to inform the lives and works of generations. Gigliotti's study is an unusual and fascinating look at the influence of a major American figure.
