The Trapp Family (also known as the von Trapp Family) were a singing group formed from the family of former Austrian naval commander Georg von Trapp. The family achieved fame in their original singing career in their native Austria during the interwar period. They also performed in the United States before emigrating there permanently to escape the deteriorating situation in Austria during World War II. In the United States, they became well known as the "Trapp Family Singers" until they ceased to perform as a unit in 1957. The family's story later served as the basis for a memoir, two German films, the 1959 Rodgers and Hammerstein Broadway musical The Sound of Music, and the hugely popular 1965 film of the same name. The last surviving of the original seven Trapp children, Maria Franziska, died in 2014 at the age of 99.
