This is the world first Who’s Who that deals with the world of entertainment, Jazz, cabaret, music, mega stars and new talents as well. It should serve as reference for performers, promoters, publicists, booking agents, venue owners, students, schools, libraries, and music industry executives, as well as the general public. Those who read who’s who books, whether they are in science, medicine, literature, and world personalities and celebrities, easily find one common denominator: who’s who books are dry and stiff. Rarely do we see warmth and personal touch in those highly respected reference works. Effort was made to avoid this tendency in the World Who’s Who in Jazz, Cabaret, Music and Entertainment. Although it is based upon rigid fact and data, found in or supplied by reliable sources, including those who are written up in this book, personal feelings and material were added. To accomplish this, the world of the artist that is not usually seen on stage or behind the mic. was probed. Sometimes candid and personal stories, anecdotes, and intimate statements were either provided directly by the artist or told by friends and peers. After all, this is a world of enchantment, glamour, and fun – and so it cannot be treated like a mathematical formula! In traditional who’s who books, those listed are usually figures well known to the public or in their own field. In this Who’s Who you will meet, on equal basis, mega stars and celebrities, as well as outstanding talent you have never heard of. This book is not based on fame and fortune alone, but also on merit. This book brings to you those who are believed to be the best in the business.
