 Frank Sinatra 
 (1915-1998) was among the most popular, influential, 
 and admitted performing artists of 
 the 20th century.  At the same time, his personality 
 and personal life were among the most 
 controversial of all public figures.  This 
 presentation will use images, audio, and video 
 clips to illustrate Mr. Sinatri's professional 
 journey across six decades, including examination 
 of the narcissistic ambition and bouts 
 of depression, suicidality and ongoing alcohol 
 abuse that shaped his life.  We will pay 
 special attention to how he dealt with his own 
 aging process, including how he continued 
 to tour in concert well into the dementia that 
 would eventually silence him as an artist and 
 as a man.  His story holds rich implications 
 for considering the creative resilience potential 
 in aging and for the limitations to such 
 resilience posed by mental illness and functional 
 impairment.  \n
