Babai was born in Hungary and emigrated to the United States late 1930s, where he became famous as "The King of the Gypsy Violin".Babai grew up in a Romani area near his birthplace and he learned to play the violin at a young age. At age 12 he would play in a local cafe, and in later years he would keep a clipping about those performances.After he emigrated to the United States he noticed that the music from his country was played in Hungarian restaurants. Babai started an orchestra in which he played the violin, accompanied by a kontras (second fiddler), a bratchas (violist), a bogos (double bass), a cimbalom-player, and a cellist.In 1953 he left Chicago for New York, where he performed in the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel.Babai was married, and had a son and two daughters.".
