Date of Birth

16 April 1935, Canonsburg, Pennsylvania, USA

Birth Name

Stanley Robert Vintula Jr

His song "There I've Said It Again" was the last song to hit #1 in the US before the "British Invasion".

Credits his mother Dorothy for inspiring his writing his hit song "My Melody of Love" - with Polish words in the song. This hit record led the way for "The Bobby Vinton Show" (1975) and for he and his family to be invited to the White House. Bobby was named as an Ambassador to Poland and traveled to Poland to perform.

His mother Dorothy also sings and dances in his act.

He has three daughters and two sons: Robert, Kristin, Christopher, Jennifer (who later changed her name to Hannah) and Rebecca.

One of his sons, Robbie Vinton, plays him in the movie Goodfellas (1990).

Shares his hometown of Canonsburg, Pennsylvania, with fellow singers Perry Como and Joey Powers.

Father is Stanley Vintula, Sr. (professional name: Stan Vinton), mother is Dorothy Vintula.

Kept his marriage to wife Dolly a secret for years. The record companies thought he would sell better if he was single. This is why, even to this very day, he has never worn his wedding ring.

Went by his first name of Stanley until age 16, when he followed in his father's footsteps and joined his first band. He decided to use Bobby so he wouldn't be confused with his father.

Attended Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, PA as a music performance major. Instrument: clarinet.

He was awarded a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for Recording at 6916 Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, California.
