Celebrating Four Great Ladies of Jazz: Dinah Washington, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughn


Patricia Myers will speak on "Celebrating Four Great Ladies of Jazz," telling intriguing anecdotes from her research and/or interviews of Dinah Washington, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan. The humorous and touching stories show how the singers overcame adversity, turning trials into triumphs.


For example: how 15-year-old Billie Holiday got her first singing job; the real story behind "A- Tisket A-Tasket"; and how many times Sarah had to win amateur competitions before she was hired for her first gig. The stories will be accompanied by excerpted CD music by the four.
