Amy Winehouse was born on September 14, 1983 to Janis and Mitch Winehouse in London, England. Unfortunately, she died on July 23, 2011 of alcohol poisoning. She had an older brother, Alex. In the book, Amy, My Daughter, written by her father Mitch Winehouse, he says that as a child Amy was always putting on talent shows for her family and enjoyed being the center of attention.
