Story / Additional Info
Frank Sinatra hung this painting in his home before giving it to William (Bill) Stapely, his personal valet. Bill worked for Mr. Sinatra from at least 1973 to 1988. Bill's job was as a personal valet to Frank (and sometimes Barbara) Sinatra. He traveled with Frank to shows all over the world. He was responsible for all the logistics associated with getting Frank on stage. He tailored his (and some of Barbara's) clothes, dressed him for performances, and managed the hotel staff and fans to insure Frank's privacy.

Frank Sinatra - United States

Art Brokerage: Frank Sinatra American Artist: b. 1915-1994. Francis Albert Sinatra (December 12, 1915 – May 14, 1998) was an American singer, actor, and producer who was one of the most popular and influential musical artists of the 20th century. He is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, having sold more than 150 million records worldwide. Born in Hoboken, New Jersey, to Italian immigrants, Sinatra began his musical career in the swing era with bandleaders Harry James and Tommy Dorsey. Sinatra found success as a solo artist after he signed with Columbia Records in 1943, becoming the idol of the "bobby soxers". He released his debut album, The Voice of Frank Sinatra, in 1946. Sinatra's professional career had stalled by the early 1950s, and he turned to Las Vegas, where he became one of its best known residency performers as part of the Rat Pack. His career was reborn in 1953 with the success of From Here to Eternity, with his performance subsequently winning an Academy Award and Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor. Sinatra released several critically lauded albums, including In the Wee Small Hours (1955), Songs for Swingin' Lovers! (1956), Come Fly with Me (1958), Only the Lonely (1958) and Nice 'n' Easy (1960). Listings wanted.
