On April 25, 1917, jazz legend Ella Fitzgerald is born in Newport News, Virginia.
She was called “The First Lady of Song,” an honor whose meaning is captured in a compliment paid to her by the great composer Ira Gershwin: “I never knew how good our songs were until I heard Ella Fitzgerald sing them.”
Are you familiar with Ella's music? What's your favorite song of hers? If not what's your favorite music genre and why?
