Frankie Lymon (September 30, 1942 – February 28, 1968) was the leader of a New York City-based early rock and roll group called The Teenagers. The group included five boys, all in their early-to-mid teens, originally consisting of three black and two Hispanic members.
The group released their debut single, "Why Do Fools Fall in Love", to considerable success. A Top 40 success at age 13, Lymon was perhaps the first African-American teen idol. After several hits, including "I'm Not a Juvenile Delinquent", "I Want You to Be My Girl", and "Baby, Baby", Lymon's manager attempted to turn him into a solo artist, leaving his old friends in the group behind in London at their London Palladium tour. Neither Lymon's solo career nor the group's attempts to carry on were successful.
Born in Harlem, New York, Lymon was credited as songwriter on "Why Do Fools Fall in Love", but his authorship was disputed. In December 1992, the United States federal court ruled that Herman Santiago and Jimmy Merchant, original members of the group, were co-authors of the song. However, in 1996 the ruling was reversed by the Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit (on the basis of the statute of limitations), and authorship of "Why Do Fools Fall in Love" currently remains in the names of Frankie Lymon and Morris Levy, not Herman Santiago and Jimmy Merchant *.
