ELLA FITZGERALD; THE LEADER TO RACIAL HARMONY- KATHERINE


Ella

She was benevolent, elegant in all ways, very proficient at singing and, last but not least, always confident

This vocal virtuosa was the daughter of Temperance (mother) and William (father) Fitzgerald

Ella best loved expressing herself through her beautiful music, making nonsense syllables and turning them into catchy songs, and selflessly giving to those less fortunate than herself

When this soon-to-be singer ran away, it proved that she was unstable and not understood, but was reconciled when she found what was for her… singing

Ella seemingly feared her parents since she decided to live on the streets and, also, later on, diabetes

The singer was desperate for companionship and got the leadership of Chick Webb, Norman Granz and the musicians/conducters of The Jazz of The Philharmonic

She gave the money that she earned generously to the charity that she manufactured; The Ella Fitzgerald Child Care Center

Ella, from Newport News, Virginia, all the way to yonkers, New York and Los Angeles, was philanthropic and a teacher that led the way to racial harmony

Fitzgerald
