Nick Arbors a Life in Show Biz From Navy to Sinatra Imitations
Nick, a former Navy crash crewman who served four years in the 1950s, pursued a show business career after leaving the service. He struggled at first in Miami clubs, then gained fame after performing a Sinatra impersonation for Frank Sinatra, who encouraged further roles. His career expanded to movies with Frank Sinatra and later a cable TV show in San Francisco and Southern California, featuring stars like Sammy Davis Jr. and Tony Bennett.
