Crooner & actor of Hollywood's golden age, Tony Martin died on Friday in Los Angeles. He was 98. The news has been told by Beverly Scott, a close source of the actor's. Tony Martin made his film debut with Fred Astaire & Ginger Rogers in the musical film "Follow The Fleet" (1936). A silver screen star during the 40's & 50's, Tony Martin played in 25 films & most of them were musicals. He had several partners in comedies : Rita Hayworth in "Music In My Heart" (1940), James Stewart in "Ziegfeld Girl" (1941) & Judy Garland in "Till The Clouds Roll By" (1946).
