Coleman Hawkins, “Body and Soul” Coleman HawkinsBody and Soul Born in St. Joseph, Missouri, on November 21, 1904, Coleman Hawkins learned how to play the piano at age 5, the cello at 7, and the tenor sax at age 9. Chiefly known for his association with swing music and the big band era, Hawkins toured the world with various bands and had a role in the development of bebop, recording what is considered the first record of the genre in 1944.

Valiada Snow, Valiada Snow, “You’re Driving Me CrazyYou’re Driving Me Crazy Trumpeter, singer and dancer Valaida Snow was a pioneering woman in jazz and among the first to reach an international audience. Like fellow boasters Jelly Roll Morton and Sidney Bechet, her tall tales sometimes obscured the substantial accomplishments of her career, which took her from vaudeville to musical theater and cabaret, and stylistically, from early jazz through Swing to rhythm 'n' blues.Jelly Roll Morton Sidney Bechet, She was born Valada Snow in Chattanooga, Tennessee, on June 2, 1904; other years of birth, from 1900 to 1909, have been proposed for her in the literature of jazz and African-American theatrical history, but an entry at the Tennessee Department of Health Office of Vital Records records the birth of an unnamed daughter to Etta and J.V. Snow in This date is further supported by an entry in the U.S. census for 1910, which lists Etta, J.V. and Valada Snow as living in Corsicana, Texas, which was also the hometown of trumpeter Oran "Hot Lips" Page.Oran "Hot Lips" Page.

Ella FitzgeraldElla Fitzgerald, “Blue Skies”Blue Skies Following a troubled childhood, Ella Fitzgerald turned to singing and debuted at the Apollo Theater in Discovered in an amateur contest, she went on to became the top female jazz singer for decades. In 1958, Fitzgerald made history as the first African-American woman to win a Grammy Award. Due in no small part to her vocal quality, with lucid intonation and a broad range, the singer would go on to win 13 Grammys in total and sell more than 40 million albums. Her multi-volume "songbooks" on Verve Records are among America's recording treasures. Fitzgerald died in California in 1996.

10. Rhythm in Transition

Fats WallerFats Waller, “Christopher Columbus”Christopher Columbus Born on May 21, 1904, in New York City, Fats Waller was influenced as a teenager by jazz great James P. Johnson. He proved a gifted piano player and songwriter, delivering such jazz standards as "Ain't Misbehavin'." In the 1930s, Waller's fame reached new heights following his performances on radio and in film. He died from bronchial pneumonia on December 15, 1943, in Kansas City, Missouri

Art TatumArt Tatum, “Over the Rainbow”Over the Rainbow Born on October 13, 1909, in Toledo, Ohio, Art Tatum was largely self-taught as a pianist despite being legally blind. He became a star in New York City in the 1930s, winning fans with his versions of pop favorites and wowing peers with his technique. After cutting a series of solo and group recordings late in his career, Tatum died from kidney disease in Los Angeles, California, on November 5, 1956.

Charlie ChristianCharlie Christian, “Swing to Bop” (“Topsy”)Swing to Bop” (“Topsy”) Born on July 20, 1916, in Texas, Charlie Christian grew up in a family of musicians and played piano and the amplified guitar. His guitar skills were such that in 1939 he earned a spot playing with Benny Goodman’s band and alongside greats like Thelonious Monk and Dizzy Gillespie. Christian died at 25 on March 2, 1942 from tuberculosis, yet became a pioneer of electric guitar playing.
