Trivia
Ashes scattered in the Pacific Ocean.
Uncle of Maria Shriver.
Brother-in-law of John F. Kennedy.
Became U.S. Citizen in 1960.
Son of actor Sidney Lawford.
Fluent in English, French, Spanish, and Italian.
His mother's childhood nickname for him was Pierrot.
Met his third wife Mary Rowan (daughter of Dan Rowan) in December 1970 while he was appearing on her father's TV show "Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In" (1968).
Romantically linked with actresses Lana Turner, Ava Gardner, Dorothy Dandridge, June Allyson, Lee Remick, Kim Novak, Judy Holliday, Evelyn Keyes, and socialites Sharman Douglas and Melissa Weston.
When he was child he fell through a French door and cut his right arm very badly; consequently, he never regained full use of his right arm and hand. Thus, he was turned down as unfit for military duty and did not serve during World War II.
Is portrayed by Angus Macfadyen in The Rat Pack (1998) (TV) and by Ian Buchanan in Marilyn & Bobby: Her Final Affair (1993) (TV).
Was the first member of the Rat Pack to pass away. With the death of Joey Bishop in October, 2007, no surviving members of the Rat Pack remain.
Nephew of Ernest Lawford.
His ex-wife Patricia Kennedy died on 17th September 2006 from complications from pneumonia at the age of 82.
Largely due to political reasons, he and former friend Frank Sinatra were estranged after the mid-1960s. In fact, when Lawford came to attend a Sinatra performance at Caeser's Palace in Las Vegas some years later, Sinatra reportedly found out about it and refused to go on until after Lawford had left.
