An important voice of the civil rights movement and one of the first black entertainers to be accepted by mainstream audiences, Harry Belafonte stands as an iconic figure in the American arts. Trained as an actor alongside Marlon Brando and Tony Curtis at the Erwin Piscator Dramatic Workshop in New York, Belafonte turned to singing after a series of cabaret roles and first recorded with Jubilee Records in 1949. Initially he lent his silky smooth voice to show tunes and the pop hits of the day, before discovering folk music from the Library of Congress' archives and releasing the album of traditional songs Mark Twain And Other Folk Favourites (1954). Follow-up album Belafonte (1956) became his first US Number 1, but he turned his attention to championing the unknown music of his West Indian parents and became known as the King of Calypso with the hit records Calypso (1956), Belafonte Sings Songs Of The Caribbean (1957) and Jump Up Calypso (1961). A film star, humanitarian, writer and activist, he won a Grammy Award for Swing Dat Hammer (1960) (a collection of work songs) and for An Evening With Belafonte/Makeba (1965) (a concept album about Apartheid in South Africa). In later years Belafonte worked as an UNICEF ambassador, but he will always be remembered for his signature hits Matilda, The Banana Boat Song (Day-O) and Jamaica Farewell.
