Something wrong with the birthday and date when she died.

Hi Folks.

In the beginning of the article of Bobbi Martin, the publisher have written:

"Bobbi Martin (b. Nov. 29, 1943, Brooklyn - d. May 2, 2000) was an American country and pop music singer, songwriter, and guitarist. She grew up and began her singing career in Baltimore, working her way up from local venues onto the national nightclub circuit. She died at the age of 61, at the Brighton"[....].

and from november 29, 1943 to may 2, 2000 I only get 56 years, 6 months and 3 days. I therefore can not understand how the publisher can say "She died at the age of 61, at the Brighton"[....].

Anyone who will be kind to change it? As you can see, my english is not so good :-)

Bobbi was born in 1939. not 1943. That explains both how her age at death was recorded at 61, and how she was a fourth grader in Oslo, Minnesota in 1948.Bellczar (talk) 07:52, 22 January 2020 (UTC)Reply


Birth name

I have provided a newspaper source for her birth name. It does seem completely uncontroversial that someone called Bobbi has a full name of Barbara.Bellczar (talk) 07:52, 22 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
