Biography

Al Jolson (1885-1950) starred in the first talking picture, Warner Brothers' The Jazz Singer, in 1927. Known in the industry as the "World's Greatest Entertainer", Jolson had Broadway musicals written expressly for him. The Jolson Story, with Larry Parks lip-synching songs to Jolson's voice, was the highest grossing film of 1946 and, in 1948, Jolson topped a "Variety" poll as "The Most Popular Male Vocalist", ahead of Crosby, Sinatra and Como.
