Description
Born and raised in Harlem, Gloria Lynne won the Apollo Theater Amateur Hour at 15. She went on to perform with our country’s greatest jazz, blues, and R&B musicians and became one of America’s leading singer-songwriters. Gloria was the protégée of the renowned jazz singer Dinah Washington and learned the ropes from other great vocalists, such as Billie Holiday, Sarah Vaughan, and Carmen McRae. Like many black recording artists of the period, she suffered financially due to flawed recording contracts. “An important piece of American history, a first-hand account of the black music experience during the second half of the 20th century. “An inspiring story of a courageous woman overcoming terrible adversities.” Photos.
