Fredrick Malcolm Waring was born in Tyrone, Pennsylvania, USA. He was a popular musician and radio-television personality, sometimes referred to as "America's Singing Master" and "The Man Who Taught America How to Sing." He studied architectural engineering from Penn State University. From 1923 until late 1932, "Waring's Pennsylvanians" were among Victor Records best-selling bands. In late 1932, he abruptly quit recording, although his band continued to perform on radio. In 1933, "You Gotta Be a Football Hero" was performed on radio to great acclaim. He expanded into television with The Fred Waring Show, which ran on CBS Television from June 20, 1948 to May 30, 1954 and received several awards for Best Musical Program.
