Harry Belafonte, singer, actor and civil rights champion, has died at 96.

Belafonte died of congestive heart failure in New York City, a spokesperson said.

Belafonte’s legacy as an arresting, charismatic singer and actor, which was sealed with the release of the landmark album “Calypso” in 1956, spanned more than six decades.

By the early 1960s, Belafonte had become a force in the civil rights movement. It was Belafonte who put up the money in 1963 to bail Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. out of jail in Alabama, where King most forcefully articulated the civil rights strategy of nonviolence in his “Letter From Birmingham Jail.”
