\n A wonderfully warm, resonant, and captivating autobiography from iconic singer and entertainer Tony Bennett.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s that regular guy from Astoria, Queens, who left his heart in San Francisco. He\u2019s the postwar heartthrob who inspired hundreds of young girls to wear black outside St. Patrick\u2019s Cathedral on his wedding day. He\u2019s the darling of the MTV generation who made music history when, at the age of 68, he won the coveted Grammy Award for Album of the Year. He\u2019s the consummate artist known worldwide for his paintings. He\u2019s Tony Bennett, and here, this legend shares his amazing life story.<\/p>\n

\u201cTony Bennett has not just bridged the generation gap, he has demolished it,\u201d praised The New York Times. From his appearance with the Red Hot Chili Peppers at the 1993 MTV Video Awards to his Radio City Music Hall concert with Lady Gaga, Bennett was the hottest\u2014and coolest\u2014pop-culture icon for today\u2019s younger listeners, while remaining beloved by their parents and grandparents. Multiple generations have experienced the Tony Bennett magic\u2014the mesmerizing spell of a singer in love with singing, who embraces his audience with a soulful serenity communicated by both the man and his music.<\/p>\n

Honored with countless awards and with more than ninety albums to his credit, no other recording artist has attained Bennett\u2019s stature\u2014or garnered the half-century of memories shared in The Good Life. From Sinatra, Judy Garland and Ella Fitzgerald, to k.d. lang and Elvis Costello, Bennett shares his unique takes on the most fascinating talents of our time. Here is the story of his lifelong love affair with art, music, and performing\u2014from his childhood in Depression-era Queens, where opera and Billie Holiday flowed freely; to his stint as a singing waiter; to soaking up the New York jazz scene in the 1940s. With crisp wit and firmly grounded emotion, Bennett captures the people and places that shaped his sublime performances. The dozens of hits he introduced to the great American songbook, including \u201cBecause of You,\u201d \u201cRags to Riches,\u201d \u201cCold, Cold Heart,\u201d and his signature song, \u201cI Left My Heart in San Francisco,\u201d remain a legacy of truth and beauty for the classic art of intimate singing.<\/p>\n

In this unforgettable self-portrait, we get to know Tony Bennett as he really is: an unpretentious and thoughtful human being. Through all of his personal and artistic challenges, he was, in his own words, \u201ca humanist\u201d whose Zen-like philosophy of life remains an inspiration for all ages. Like the fascinating story he shares in The Good Life, Tony Bennett was one of a kind, an American treasure, an enduring artist seasoned with experience and self-knowledge, and a true class act. <\/p>\n
