Johnny Johnston
American actor and singer Johnny Johnston played leading roles in a few frothy Hollywood musicals during the 1940s. Before that, the St. Louis native found popularity as a singer with Art Kassel's band Kassels in the Air. During the late 1930s, Johnston became a popular guitar-playing radio crooner. Following his brief film career, Johnston became a popular nightclub performer and theater star, returning briefly to films in the mid -'50s. He signed to Capitol Records in 1942 and recorded the standard "That Old Black Magic." His other best-known song is the million-selling "Laura." ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide
