About Eddie Fisher
Edwin Jack "Eddie" Fisher was an American singer and actor. Popular during the 1950s, he sold millions of records and hosted his own TV show, The Eddie Fisher Show. Fisher had multiple high-profile marriages, including with Debbie Reynolds, Elizabeth Taylor, and Connie Stevens. With Reynolds, he fathered Carrie Fisher. It was known at an early age that he had talent as a vocalist, and he started singing in numerous amateur contests, which he usually won. In 1953, "Any Time" became his first record to sell a million copies, followed soon after by "I'm Walking Behind You". Because he became a local star, Fisher dropped out of high school in the middle of his senior year to pursue his career.
