The legendary Friars Club will be celebrating Frank Sinatra’s 100th birthday with a gala at the Pierre Hotel in Manhattan on January 11, 2016.  Friars Club President, talk show host extraordinaire, Larry King, will be the Master of Ceremonies.

Many of the show’s performers worked directly with Sinatra over the course of his incredible career. Norm Crosby, Tony Danza, Robert Davi, Tom Dreesen, Shawn King, Deana Martin, Frank Pellegrino, Steve Tyrell, Dionne Warwick and other very special guests are scheduled to appear and pay their own personal homage to the Sinatra legacy.

According to Larry King, “Celebrating Frank Sinatra’s 100th birthday is a celebration of a prolific era in the American Songbook. Sinatra’s unique talents made him a legend for all time. The Friars love to honor their own and Frank’s legacy with us­ from his early years at the Club with the rat pack to his tenure as Abbot ­have paved the way for this honor. We arethrilled to have been played a part in the storied life of this amazing entertainer and humanitarian. I was proud to call him a friend.”

Sinatra was a fixture of the Friars, and for 20 years reigned as their Abbot (Chairman of the Board), overseeing the Board of Directors and appearing at Dinners and Roasts. This celebration is a heartfelt tribute to the legend that left his indelible imprint in entertainment for generations to come.
