Whitney Houston rose from a gospel choir in Newark to become one of the most successful and influential singers in popular music. Her extraordinary voice carried songs including "Greatest Love of All", "I Wanna Dance with Somebody" and "I Will Always Love You" to audiences around the world, while The Bodyguard transformed her into a major film star. Behind the record-breaking albums and unforgettable performances, however, was a complicated personal life shaped by marriage, motherhood, intense public scrutiny and addiction. In this episode of Compact Biographies, we explore Whitney Houston's childhood, remarkable career, relationship with Bobby Brown, difficult final years and enduring musical legacy.
