Ella Fitzgerald - Waleed
Ella was born in Newport News, Virginia.
She was a child of Tempie, William, and Chick Webb.
She lived in Yonkers, New York and other places.
She studied singing and sang with glee singers in school.
Ella overcame the fear of dancing and sang.
She was challenged by the Apollo Theater, singing instead of dancing, feared failure.
Ella's personality could be described as kind, encouraging and passionate about her singing.
She always kept on trying , improving, trying new things that changed how she sang.
Never gave up until the very end.
Best known for singing in front of integrated audiences.
Ella was a happy and weird jazz singer.
