Charles Eugene "Pat" Boone (born June 1, 1934) is an American singer, actor and writer who was one of the biggest stars in the United States and the world during the 1950s. He sold over 45 million albums, had 38 top-40 hits and starred in over 12 popular Hollywood movies. Boone's talent as a singer and actor, his all-american good looks, his charisma and his old-fashioned values all contributed to his status as an American icon. He was an international superstar during the 1950s and 1960s and continues to entertain and perform.
Boone was very successful in multiple ways. He hosted a very popular network television show, The Pat Boone Chevy Show from 1957-1959. He has written many books and had a No. 1 Bestseller in the 1950s ("Twixt Twelve and Twenty", Prentice-Hall). His cover versions of African-American rhythm and blues hits had a noticeable impact on the development of the broad popularity of rock and roll. During his tours in the 1950s, Elvis Presley was one of his opening acts.
In the 1960s, he focused on gospel music and is a member of the Gospel Music Hall of Fame. Many today believe strongly that he should be a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, including Mike Curb, a former lieutenant governor of California and the founder of Curb Records. Boone still holds the Billboard record for spending 220 consecutive weeks on the charts with more than one song.
Boone is also a motivational speaker, a television personality, a conservative political commentator and a popular Christian activist, writer and preacher.
