He also was instrumental in the careers of Nancy and Frank Sinatra, having started a publishing company for the performers and helping to cut famous tracks like 'These Boots Are Made for Walking' and 'Something Stupid.' Additionally, Strange had a role in the 1980 Loretta Lynn biopic 'Coal Miner's Daughter.' The multi-talented artist died in February at the age of 81.
