Frank Sinatra, Jr. was born in New Jersey, raised in California and educated in the showrooms of Las Vegas and on stages all over the world. He found himself catapulted into a position he never sought but must have surely contemplated.

Beginning in 1988, at his father's request, Sinatra, Jr. served as conductor and musical director for his father's final years of live performing. It earned Sinatra, Jr. the respect of the musicians and those in the audience for the devotion and skill he brought to the job. Currently, Sinatra, Jr. enjoys touring in many countries, on the stages of casino show rooms, performing arts centers, theaters and the halls of the world's greatest symphony orchestras.
