Wikipedia, Aug. 21, 2013 (Charles Eugene "Pat" Boone; born June 1, 1934 in Jacksonville, Fla.; American singer, actor, and writer. He was a successful pop singer in the United States during the 1950s and early 1960s. His hit songs were cover versions of black R&B artists' hit songs; his talent as a singer and actor, combined with his old-fashioned values, contributed to his popularity in the early rock and roll era. As an author, Boone had a No. 1 bestseller in the 1950s (Twixt Twelve and Twenty). In the late 1960s, he focused on gospel music and is a member of the Gospel Music Hall of Fame. He continues to perform, and speak as a motivational speaker, a television personality, and a conservative political commentator. One of his daughters, Debby Boone, is also a singer)
