Photos of Elvis From Childhood to Fame Now Added to Mobile Apps

amalichka — Sat, 19 Jan 2013 17:18:35 GMT

As the 2013 Birthday Celebration gets ready to kick off at Graceland in Memphis, we look back at Elvis' very humble beginnings and his rise to super-stardom. Elvis Aaron Presley was born to Vernon and Gladys Presley in a two-room house in Tupelo, Mississippi, on January 8, 1935. He and his parents moved to Memphis, Tennessee, in 1948, and Elvis graduated from Humes High School in 1953. Over the years, Elvis' style and music evolved with influences from the gospel music he heard in church and at the all-night gospel sings he frequently attended, plus the rhythm and blues he absorbed on Beale Street as a Memphis teenager. Elvis fans can enjoy a special mini-conversations on Elvis at the new "Elvis' Tupelo" Exhibit at the Bijou Theater on Monday, January 7, at 1:00 p.m. The free event looks at his life growing up in a small Mississippi town with special speakers, Tupelo Historian Roy Turner and Elvis’ childhood friends Guy Harris and Sam Bell. In celebration of the king's birthday, we've added five photos of Elvis from his childhood days in Tupelo to his rise to fame to our Elvis Mobile 2.0 iPhone app, Elvis Mobile 2.0 Android app, and Elvis for iPad app.
