This five-time GRAMMY® winner could soulfully mix pop, R&B, jazz, and gospel in ways that transcended musical and cultural borders. The New Jersey-born singer grew up in a musical family and was discovered in 1961 by genius pop songwriting duo Burt Bacharach and Hal David, and together they accumulated dozens of best-selling albums and hit singles. As her career unfolded, she continued to work with top producers and score hits—she's sold more than 100 million albums worldwide—while tirelessly pursuing humanitarian work.
