Frank Sinatra FBI Files
3,072 pages of FI files covering Frank Sinatra. Files date from 1944 to 1985. Some files were not declassified until November 2017.
Francis Albert Sinatra ( December 12, 1915 – May 14, 1998) was an American singer, actor and producer who was one of the most popular and influential musical artists of the 20th century. His FBI files are as long, varied and multifaceted as his life.
One of the early things that brought Frank Sinatra under the attention of the FBI was when in 1946 the FBI received an intelligence bulletin from U.S. military intelligence about his sponsorship of "American Crusade to End Lynchings" organized by the National Negro Congress, chaired by Paul Robeson, the organization was considered anti-American by the FBI.
The FBI gathered reporting on Sinatra socializing with organized crime figures, an allegation from gossip columnist and radio personality Walter Winchell which was disproved, that he bribed a doctor to obtain a 4-F Selective Service classification, record of a 1938 arrest in Hackensack, New Jersey on charges of "seduction and adultery", and accounts of Sinatra as the target of death threats and extortion schemes. Files cover the relationship between Sinatra and John F. Kennedy. Attention is given to Sinatra's association with Sam Giancana and Sinatra introducing Judith Campbell Exner to President Kennedy.
