Known as the King of Rock and Roll, Elvis Aaron Presley dominated American popular music in the 1950s, and became even more famous after his tragic death in 1977. Born into a poor Southern family, Elvis Presley's blend of rockabilly, gospel, and black-influenced rhythm and blues, along with his sexual swagger, made him into the most popular and influential artist to a generation of music fans.   Elvis Presley in his U.S. Army uniform Elvis Presley and President Richard Nixon Meeting   Elvis Presley singing in Hawaii wearing his famous white jumpsuit   Elvis Presley in a Jailhouse Rock publicity photo
