The stamp honoring Frank Sinatra, one of the most iconic enter­tainers of the 20th cen­tury, was unveiled during a special cere­mony in Beverly Hills, CA, on Sinatra’s birth­day. Sinatra’s three chil­dren — Nancy, Frank Jr., and Tina Sinatra — attended the event.

During his career, Sinatra won an Oscar, several Grammy awards, received the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award in 1971, and the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1985. He was born in Hoboken, NJ, in 1915 and died in 1998.

USPS will issue the Sinatra stamp next spring.
