An overnight singing sensation, a film star with over 30 films to his credit and the producer of his own concert series, FABIAN continues to expand his ever-growing career.
Born on February 6, 1943, FABIAN FORTE was actually discovered at the age of 14 sitting on his front steps in Philadelphia. Soon thousands were to throng to his concerts. Capitalizing on his good looks and ability to excite an audience. FABIAN reached dizzying heights of success. At 15, he won the Silver Award as "The Most Promising Male Vocalist of 1958". By the time he was 18, he had recorded dozens of hit singles, eight albums and earned gold records for "Turn Me Loose" and "Tiger" and a gold album for "The Fabulous Fabian".
In 1959, FABIAN made his screen debut in "Hound Dog Man" opposite Carol Lynley. He had begun to concentrate on another aspect of show business that interested him more than singing -- acting. His role as a homicidal maniac in a TV production entitled "A Lion Walks Among Us" directed by Robert Altman solidly established his credentials as a versatile and powerful actor. Serious about his craft, FABIAN studied in New York for three years under Wynn Handman and with Charles Conrad and Sandy Meisner in Hollywood. His impressive acting credits include featured roles with John Wayne, James Stewart, Jack Palance, Tuesday Weld, George Segal and Karen Black.
FABIAN never disappoints his fans. They see a stunning man to whom the years have been kind. A man who is as fresh and as magnetic as ever. A consummate professional, FABIAN has pursued his career with an admirable intensity. He has traveled the show business ladder and survived, his sense of humor and integrity intact.

Pop Culture guru Mike Marino looks at the '60s and beyond through his own kaleidoscope, where rock met revolution. Spewing quips like a psychedelic lawn mower run amok, he drags us, more than likely kicking and screaming, through a past few of us knew and even fewer would admit. This is Truth barred from the history books--- or as Marino would put it, the Red, White and Screwed. Could cause nausea, night sweats and loss of appetite. Void where prohibited. Frank Gutch, Jr.
