<b><br>Just in time for the Chairman's centennial, the endlessly absorbing sequel to James Kaplan's bestselling<i> Frank: The Voice</i>—finally the definitive biography that Frank Sinatra, justly termed &quot;The Entertainer of the Century,&quot; deserves and requires. Like Peter Guralnick on <i>Elvis</i>, Kaplan goes behind the legend to give us the man in full, in his many guises and aspects: peerless singer, (sometimes) powerful actor, business mogul, tireless lover, and associate of the powerful and infamous.</b><br><br>In 2010's <i>Frank: The Voice</i>, James Kaplan, in rich, distinctive, compulsively readable prose, told the story of Frank Sinatra's meteoric rise to fame, subsequent failures, and reinvention as a star of live performance and screen. The story of &quot;Ol' Blue Eyes&quot; continues with<i> Sinatra: The Chairman</i>, picking up the day after Frank claimed his Academy Award in 1954 and had reestablished himself as the top recording artist in music. Frank's life post-Oscar was incredibly dense: in between recording albums and singles, he often shot four or five movies a year; did TV show and nightclub appearances; started his own label, Reprise; and juggled his considerable commercial ventures (movie production, the restaurant business, even prizefighter management) alongside his famous and sometimes notorious social activities and commitments.
