Since he was a child star, what he gained in performing experience cost him his childhood, he didnt get to do things other kids would do, go to a park, play with other children.
As good old Mr. Sinatra said, “If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere.” Francis Albert Sinatra was born on December 12, 1915 in Hoboken, New Jersey. He was the only child of Sicilian immigrants who moved to the states to make a better life for their family.

Radio exposure brought him to the attention of bandleader Harry James, with whom Sinatra made his first recordings, including "All or Nothing at All."
Billie hated his stepfather and dedicated a song to him called "Why do you want him?".

Pacettas Rules for Leadership Kevin J American Military University Frank Pacetta had a lot of native talent but he squandered it in his early years with Xerox (Pacetta p.12). Luckily for Xerox and himself, he was never fired and received the training and mentorship that he needed to morph into the type of leader who would take charge of a failing district and turn it into one of the top performers in the country. Mr. Pacettas parents were a large influence on him as a person but also as a leader and boss. His mother had to take care of his brother who was handicap and he heard stories about how great of a boss his father was. Mr. Pacetta would take the never quit attitude from his mother and the business and people savvy of his father and combine them to make one outstanding mentor and leader.
Despite his mother’s passing Gautama lived an luxurious life. His father, King Suddhondana made it his business that his son never met with the unpleasant circumstances in life.

Siddhartha’s father wanted him to become his successor but Siddhartha had other plans. As Gautama engaged in his high quality education, and martial arts he often got his charioteer to take him through the streets to where he witnessed extreme misery in pain.
In the reading the Hunger Artist appears to be a complex character because the reason of why he staves himself is never brought to the audience until the very end of the story. As misunderstood as the artist is, he seems to enjoy the life of being the “circus freak.” His love for his talent is described, “he lived for many years, with small regular intervals of recuperation, in visible glory, honored by the world, yet in spite of the troubled in spirit, and all the trouble because no one would take is trouble seriously ( A Hunger Artist 272).” This quote displays the double edge sword of his fame that is honored for its extreme effect it has one the body and unique style, but the artist is still not understood why he continues with this. The audience continues throughout the story to remain incomprehensive with the actions of the hunger artist. The audience has specific role in the story as the nutrients of the artist because there ability to keep the Hunger Artist to keep continuing his actions in this sickly state. The artist self-denial leads him in another type of nourishment which is symbolized as the public.
The Beatles were definitely an influential band and could be seen to have changed certain aspects of the world in the Sixties. However, it can also be said that they didn’t change the world in the Sixties, as they didn’t actually change much politically even though their opinions were listened to by the younger generation. Source 16 is a quote from an interview with John Lennon in the Rolling Stone magazine and it shows how John Lennon strongly disagrees with the statement that the Beatles ‘changed the world’. He says ‘nothing happened in the Sixties’ and talks about how nothing changes ‘The same idiots are in control, the same people are running everything, its exactly the same’ this shows Lennon is playing down the role of the Beatles in the 60’s and perhaps his own frustrations at not changing anything. Politically, nothing changed in Britain and whilst at the time they and the youth seemed to be having an influence; everything they protested about didn’t change and they had no real influence over what happened.
