  • Jazz Woman.

  • Ain't no party like Art Ford's Jazz Party...wow.

  • @waynebrasier I don't think the 40s or 50s were periods where women walked around anything less than dressed from the handbag and gloves to the matching hat - if you catch my drift - Especially if they were a celebrity, just ask your grandma. Actually, Anita is greatly noted as a sort of "rebel" who refused to wear gowns and follow the "glamourous dame" stereotype, simply because she wanted to be recognized as a serious artist. She even had a matching band uniform when she was a "Girl Singer" :)

  • Seldom mentioned but definitely part of her success was the way she looked. Always very fashionable, very hip, stylishly coiffed. And despite being a very sophisticated, urban jazz singer she had a very fresh-scrubbed All American look (as did June Christy and Chris Connor). Chris pointed out that all three of them came from the Midwest and very close (Anita, Chicago; June, Decature; Chris, Kansas City and then Jefferson City and Columbia). They were all fans of each others' work.

  • I love when she sang the nonsense scat, I could listen to her do that all day!!

  • La Primera Dama del Jazz

  • First Lady of Jazz.

  • El jazz hecho MUJER. La dama vestida como si saliera de la oficina. La forma de interpretar, los saltos de tiempo y la vocalización. La solicitud de entradas a los enormes músicos que la acompañan en ésta fiesta del ritmo y buen gusto. Una hermosura.
