Publisher Description A teen idol of the 1950s who virtually invented the singer/songwriter/heartthrob combination that still tops pop music today, Paul Anka rocketed to fame with a slew of hits - from Diana to Put Your Head on my Shoulder - that earned him a place touring with the major stars of his era, including Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Buddy Holly. He wrote Hollys last hit, and just missed joining the rocker on his final, fatal plane flight. Anka also stepped in front of the camera in the teen beach-party movie era, scoring the movies and romancing their starlets, including Annette Funicello. When the British invasion made his fans swoon for a new style of music - and musician - Anka made sure he wasnt conquered. A rapier-canny businessman and image-builder who took his career into his own hands - just as he had from the very beginning, swiping his mothers car at fourteen to drive himself, underage, to his first gigs in Quebec - Anka toured the world until he could return home in triumph. A charter member of the Rat Pack, he wrote the theme music for The Tonight Show as well as his friend Frank Sinatras anthem My Way. By the 1970s, a multi-decade string of pop chart-toppers, including Puppy Love and (Youre) Having My Baby, cemented his status as an icon. Author Biography Paul Anka had his own vocal group by the age of thirteen and released his first single at sixteen. His first #1 hit, Diana, made him a star. By the 1970s, a multi-decade string of pop hits, from Puppy Love to (Youre) Having My Baby, cemented his status as an icon. He lives in Southern California. David Dalton, a founding editor of Rolling Stone, is the author of twelve books, including biographies of James Dean, Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, Sid Vicious and the Rolling Stones.
