American Women in Jazz

Here, for the first time, is the rich and diverse history of women jazz musicians, from rural tent shows and local dance halls to urban theaters and the vaudeville stage, from the steamboats of St. Louis to wartime army bases, from big bands and small combos to the yearly Women's Jazz Festival in Kansas City and New York's Salute to Women in Jazz. Based on three years of extensive research and nearly seventy-five personal interviews, American Women in Jazz presents profiles of over sixty women, set in the context of the musical and social history of the times, many of whom have never before had a chance to tell their story or to speak as honestly, completely, and with such feeling as they do now.

Do You Have Any Questions?

Why does she open the windows in the middle of winter? How do I know if it's labor? Why do I need that test? How much weight should I gain? These and 96 other common questions from pre-conception to going home with your newborn are answered by one of the country's leading obstetrician/gynecologists. Her experience in delivering over 2,500 babies, and being a mother and grandmother herself, puts Dr. Mary Jane Bovo in a unique position to know what the commonly asked questions are, and to know the answers as well.More and more, physicians have little time to educate patients. Insurance companies pay for procedures but not for educating the individual on how to take care of herself.
