Lewis, one of the singer's Rat Pack compatriots

I never knew Lewis was part of the "Rat Pack"
I thought it was Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis, and WhatsHisName... related to the Kennedys at one time....

Joey Bishop was in the Rat Pack as well.

Lewis was neither a Rat Pack member nor a friend of Rat Pack members.

The Rat Pack actually was much larger. It was originally Bogart and his crew and just kind of morphed over the years.

That said, Lewis and Martin weren't exactly close after their team broke up.

"WhatsHisName" is Peter Lawford, and you can add Joey Bishop to the list. Many also forget that Shirley McClain was the lone female considered part of the Rat Pack.

Of course, the modern day Rat Pack is all members of the Democratic Party.

Let's not forget auxiliary members of the Summit (Frank would kick you a-s if you used the term rat pack), Angie Dickinson and Shirley Maclaine.
