Elvis Presley
b. 1-8-1935; Tupelo, MS
d. 8-16-1977; Memphis, TN
Elvis Presley, one of the most popular entertainers of the 20th century, and the best selling solo artist in history, is commony recognized by just his first name. As a white, Elvis was able to bring the sound of African American music to a national audience.
A very shy young Elvis received his first guitar as a birthday gift; eventually he took the guitar to school with him, singing and playing at lunchtime, which helped with the shyness.
