Now They're All Here: The King Family

Now They’re All Here is more than just a celebration of television history; it’s a family album from one of America’s most iconic entertainment families. The King Family has been performing together (and with solo careers) since the 1920s: vaudeville, radio, musical films of the 1940s, kitschy sci-fi from the 1950s, tours across the country, recordings in musical genres from jazz and big band to Broadway and pop—even cartoons and video games.The title of this book comes from the only line “Grandma Pearl” ever had during their run on television; a gathering of all the members of the family arriving at Grandma’s home on their 1967 Thanksgiving special. This visual journey brings to life the moments that defined The King Family’s career on stage and off. Through rare behind-the-scenes photos, personal anecdotes, and journals reaching back to the early twentieth century, readers experience a glimpse of the family’s musical legacy.Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to their story, Now They’re All Here offers a nostalgic and heartfelt tribute to a family that defined the spirit of family entertainment for generations.
