Clive Baldwin, who billed himself as "The World's Greatest Minstrel," was born in England on March 11, 1934, and in his early teens was told by many that his voice was similar to that of the late and great Al Jolson. Coming to America, he used that talent to develop a career impersonating Al Jolson, which he had done successfully in many venues. Having entertained audiences on both sides of the Atlantic, he appeared on stage and television for over 30 years. He used his talent into the 21st century so that audiences may get a sampling of what it must have been like to have seen Al Jolson in person.
Clive passed away on Febury 22, 2022.
