The name "Rat Pack" was first used to refer to a group of friends in Hollywood informally organized around Humphrey Bogart and including the young Frank Sinatra. According to Stephen Bogart, the original members of the Holmby Hills Rat Pack were Sinatra (pack master), Garland (first vice-president), Bacall (den mother), Luft (cage master), Bogart (rat in charge of public relations), Swifty Lazar (recording secretary and treasurer), Nathaniel Benchley (historian), David Niven, Katharine Hepburn, Spencer Tracy, George Cukor, Michael Romanoff and Jimmy Van Heusen. In his autobiography The Moon's a Balloon, actor David Niven confirms that the Rat Pack originally included him but not Sammy Davis or Dean Martin. Lauren Bacall is still alive. The 1960s version of the group included Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis, Jr., Joey Bishop, Peter Lawford (brother-in-law of John F. Kennedy), and for a brief stint, Norman Fell. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rat_Pack#The_fifties_Rat_Pack Dec 09 07, 10:34 PM
