Frankie Avalon (born Francis Thomas
Avallone, September 18, 1939, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) is
an American actor, singer, and former teen idol. In 1959, his
songs "Venus" and "Why" both went to number one on Billboard
magazine's Hot 100. Avalon had 31 charted Billboard U.S.
singles during his career from 1958 to late 1962. His movies
were best known as beach party fun films. He also had
straight dramatic parts in films such as The Alamo as well as
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea.

In 1987 Avalon and Annette Funicello returned to
the movies, with the aptly titled Back to the Beach.
He regularly guest stars in stage productions
of Grease in the role of Teen Angel (a role he played in the popular
1978 film adaptation) and Tony n' Tina's Wedding as a characterized
version of himself. |
