Dean Martin found phenomenal success in almost every entertainment venue and though he suffered a few down-times during his career, always managed to come out on top. During the '50s, he and partner Jerry Lewis formed one of the most popular comic film duos in filmdom. After splitting with Lewis, he was associated with the Hollywood's ultra-cool Rat Pack and came to be known as the chief deputy to the chairman of the board Frank Sinatra.
Though initially a comic actor, he proved himself a powerful dramatic actor in such dramas as Young Lions (1958), more than holding his own opposite Marlon Brando and Montgomery Clift. He was also never above poking sly fun at his image as a smooth womanizer in such outings as the Matt Helm spy spoofs of the '60s. As a singer, Martin was by his own admission, not the greatest baritone on earth, and made no bones about having copied the styles of Bing Crosby and Perry Como.
