Philip Gary Schlein, New York City (it's uncertain whether it was the Bronx or Queens); grew up there and on Long Island before his family moved to Los Angeles in the middle or late 1950s, which is when they changed the family name to Sloan; the F in P.F. comes from the nickname Flip, given to him as a child by his sister; later legally changed his middle name to Faith; d. Sunday [Nov. 15, 2015], Los Angeles, aged 70; singer and songwriter of somewhat enigmatic repute, whose apocalyptic anthem Eve of destruction, written when he was just 19, was a seminal protest song of the 1960s)
