This
is the first Who’s Who that deals with the world of Jazz, Cabaret, and
Entertainment. It is astonishing that this is the case, since such a book
is urgently needed for an industry that brings such joy to all of us. 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 talents you have never heard of. This book is not based
on fame and fortune alone, but also on merit. There are over two million
performers in the world. Just in New York, we have over nine thousand
performers and entertainers. In California, approximately eight thousands.
Even in Hawaii, we have almost one hundred and twenty five cabaret
singers. Consequently, it is impossible to include all of them in 6
volumes volumes. This book brings to you those who are believed to be the
best in the business. However,
this is only the
first edition. In future editions, which would follow on a yearly basis,
many more performers will be included. Please feel free to suggest your
own name, or those of others whom you admire and feel are worth mentioning
in the future editions of the World Who’s Who in Jazz, Cabaret,
Music and Entertainment. Every suggestion will receive serious
consideration.
