Bennet grew up listening to the radio and got inspired by musicians like Bing
Crosby, Louis Armstrong and James Durante. His big break came in the year
1949 when the comedian Bob Hope noticed him. Bob Hope offered Bennet to
come and sing with him and gave him his stage name ‘Tony Bennet’ based on
his full name Anthony Dominick Benedetto.
