Cameron's Ella Fitzgerald poem

Ella was born in 1917 when her father abandoned her.

Ella was a child of Temple and William Fitzgerald

Ella lived in New port News Virginia and Beverly hills

Ella studied two types of singing, scat and bebop

Ella overcame racial segregation and surgery but she kept performing

Ella worked as a singer in the chick web orchestra 

Ella was challenged by segregation and diabetes 

Ella's personality could be described as kind, funny
, and generous

Ella was always plotted loudly after a performance

Never afraid or nervous on stage

Ella was best known for her scat singing and bebop

Ella was the best scat singer I ever heard
