Biography
Bing Crosby was an American singer and actor, the defining crooner of the twentieth century. Rising from *Paul Whiteman*'s orchestra, he mastered microphone singing on records such as 'White Christmas' (1942), the best-selling single ever, dominated radio, and won an Oscar for 'Going My Way' (1944). His intimate baritone shaped generations of popular singers. He was also an early investor in magnetic tape recording for radio broadcast.
