RENDEZ-VOUS CHEZ PATRICIA

Our Guest of Honor:

Patricia Myers
International Jazz Critic And Photo-Journalist

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 accopanied by excerpted CD music by the four.
