What photographer Sid Avery said about taking this photo: "Talk about ‘relaxed’ – he was the epitome of cool. Loving father, extremely funny and talented, and a great joy to work with...You can see what his lunch was composed of – it looks like a martini, an egg and maybe a muffin. He was a very popular singer, actor, entertainer, good golfer and an all around nice guy. He was always one of my favorite people. I thought of the whole Rat Pack, he was the one that had the greatest sense of humor. He was naturally funny." See less
