, Alzheimer's disease is defined as"a progressive neurologic disorder that causes the brain to shrink and brain cells to die, and is the most common cause of dementia — a continuous decline in thinking, behavioral and social skills that affects a person's ability to function independently."
As a teenager, Bennett dropped out of high school and worked as a singer and waiter to help support the family. He went on to serve in the Army infantry during the tail end of World War II and used the GI bill to pay for his college education at the American Theatre Wing where he studied singing. Splitting his time between school and working as a waiter, Bennett learned different singing styles and booked small performances.
