Born in the South's most exotic city, New Orleans, he was acclaimed as one of history's finest singing-actors, specialising in r les that evoked villainy and terror, and was a resident star at the adventurous New York City Opera.\u003c\/p\u003e In this, the first biography of the legendary bass-baritone, you will read of his colourful life in New Orleans, his self-destructive life-style, the seeming contradictions in his complex character, his passion for the race-track, his enormous voice and emaciated physique, his electrifying stage-presence and astonishing acting ability, why he never sang at the Metropolitan Opera, and his mysterious, sudden death at the age of forty-seven.
