30. Waters, Ethel waters, ethel. U.S. Actor. ethel waters, one of the most influential jazz and blues singers of her time http://www.museum.tv/archives/etv/W/htmlW/watersethel/watersethel.htm

WATERS, ETHEL U.S. Actor Ethel Waters, one of the most influential jazz and blues singers of her time, popularised many song classics including "Stormy Weather". Waters was also the first African-American woman to be given equal billing with white stars in Broadway shows, and to play leading roles in Hollywood films. Once she had established herself as one of America's highest paid entertainers she demanded, and won, dramatic roles. Single-handedly Waters shattered the myth that African-American women could perform only as singers. In the early 1950s, for example, she played a leading role in the stage and screen versions of Carson McCullers' The Member of the Wedding. Ethel played a Southern mammy, but demonstrated with a complex and moving performance that it was possible to destroy the one-dimensional Aunt Jemima image of African American women in American theater and cinema. In a career that spanned almost sixty years, there were few openings for an African-American woman of her class, talent and ability. She appeared on television as early as 1939 when she made two experimental programmes for NBC:

31. Ethel Waters Brief biography of the artist, with a photograph. http://www.wntb.com/blackachievers/ethlwaters/

ETHEL WATERS Waters, Ethel (b. October 31, 1896?, Chester, Pa.; d. September 1, 1977, Chatsworth, Calif.), American singer and actress who brought black urban blues into the mainstream. Ethel Waters was born to a 12 year old mother, Louise Anderson, who had been raped by a white man, John Waters. Although she was raised by her maternal grandmother, she took her father's surname. Reared in poverty, she left school at the age of 13 in order to support herself through domestic housework. Waters performed for the first time at the age of five in a children's church program. She was called Baby Star and later, performing on the black vaudeville circuit, became known as Sweet Mama Stringbean. After moving to New York City in 1919, at the start of the Harlem Renaissance , Waters recorded songs for Black Swan Records and then Colombia Records while playing in revues and performing on the white vaudeville circuit during the 1920s. Two of her more popular songs were "Dinah" (1925) and "Stormy Weather" (1933). By refining the lyrics and the performance, Waters introduced urban blues to a white audience. Her stylistic alterations created a niche for the black nightclub singers who gained popularity from the 1930s through the 1950s. In 1927, Waters's career as an actress began with the musical

32. Ethel Waters A look at ethel waters's life from a Christian perspective, from the Famous Christians in History series. http://www.mhmin.org/FC/fc-1193EthelW.htm

Home Prayer Partnership TV ... About Us FAMOUS CHRISTIANS IN HISTORY PREVIOUS STORY NEXT STORY Ethel Waters Ethel Waters, one of the world’s most highly acclaimed Christian and secular singers, was born October 31, 1900, in Chester, Pennsylvania. Her mother was 12 years old when she was raped at knife point by a 23-year-old mulatto, who violated her because she was a virgin. Throughout her life Ethel fought hard for her mother’s affections, but never felt she was truly loved because she was a product of the most tragic and frightening event a young girl could ever experience. Ethel was adopted by her grandmother, Sally Anderson, but because "Mom’s" work required her to live elsewhere, Ethel lived with her older alcoholic aunts and uncles. She was responsible for raising herself in Pennsylvania’s multicultural, red-light district where legal prostitution, gambling, and other vices were accepted as normal. There was little stability in Ethel’s young life – 15 months was the longest her family lived in one place. She became a professional thief and stole food out of necessity. There was never a day in Ethel’s childhood that she was not hungry; cat and dog food were culinary delights. Ethel’s grandmother, a staunch Catholic, enrolled her (at the age of nine) in a Catholic school in Philadelphia. In an attempt to shield herself from the rejection and hurt she had come to expect, Ethel had built walls of hate between herself and others. In this school she immediately set about to establish her reputation as a menace. But her hatred and defiance were met with love, her badness and meanness with patience.

33. Songbirds: Ethel Waters Detailed review of waters's CD, Takin' a Chance on Love, by Bill Reed, with a discussion of the artist's impact on American popular music. http://www.mrlucky.com/songbirds/html/oct99/9910_waters.html

Winter 2000 The Songbirds Archives Takin’ a Chance on Love Definitive Records (DRCD 11114), Spain, 1999 Reviewed by Bill Reed (Los Angeles) Ethel Waters was the most confident-sounding voice to emanate from black America during the 1920s and 1930s. The self-assurance Waters possessed, however, was gained at great expense. Notorious for her unbridled rage, she once became so jealous of the attention paid to the younger, prettier, lighter-skinned Lena Horne (who was certainly no more talented) while filming Cabin in the Sky that she broke in into an anti-Semitic snit that effectively closed the picture down for several days. Word of her behavior spread and Waters’ career was in the dumper for several years. This is but one of many instances of the star’s legendary foul temper. Common wisdom attributes her prickliness to the hard-scrabble racist atmosphere of her childhood and early professional life. Ultimately, however, the diva temperament was a small price to pay: Waters was, along with Al Jolson, Fanny Brice and a handful of others, one of the finest variety artists of her time, a "grande vedette," as the influential Chicago critic, Ashton Stevens, pointed out, in French tradition of "Yves Guilbert. The greatest artist of her race and generation." Waters was also a major link in the evolution of vernacular/non-operatic singing. "[Waters’

34. Ethel Waters: Blackbird Of The Blues (RETRO Magazine) Detailed account of the career of one of the 20th Century's great blues singers, by Retro Magazine. http://www.jenalouisiana.com/links/ethelwaters.html

Ethel Waters: Blackbird of the Blues by Rusty DeSoto S HE WAS A Philadelphia chambermaid who was urged up on stage by friends one fateful amateur night on Halloween in 1911. It also happened to be her fifteenth birthday. Warbling "St Louis Blues" to the crowded theatre while wearing a mask to conceal her nervousness, Ethel Waters brought down the house for the first of many times in her career. Two decades later, Ethel remarked, "They raised such a ruckus that the manager gave me first prize and a steady job. I sang, and he collected. He took in $25 a week and only paid me $9. I hope I never have another man like that around me!" With her bell-clear soprano voice, proper diction and amazing vibrato, Ethel provided inspiration to such later vocal giants as Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday and Sarah Vaughan. You can hear the roots of Ella's scat chops in Ethel Waters' "West End Blues" and "Guess Who's in Town," both circa 1928. West End Blues by Ethel Waters Ethel Waters never learned to read a note of music, yet she could remember a song if someone played it for her a time or two. She was perfectly suited to jazz because she never performed a song exactly the same way twice. She said of her style, "I just let it out the way it comes to me. Once the orchestra gets used to letting themselves go, everything works out fine. The song is really the main thing, the song and the way you sing it." Her expressive face with its wide, gap-toothed smile, deep dimples, expressive eyes and dramatic facial gestures also helped establish her as a comedienne. "The only thing about my face that I want people to take notice of is my gestures," she once said of her appearance. She was also known for wearing her signature jewelry: huge dangly earrings.

Ethel Waters Powered by Oxford University Press. I Got Rhythm Recorded November 18, 1930 (Courtesy Columbia/Legacy Image courtesy of Frank Driggs Collection Ethel Waters grew up in the Philadelphia area, where she came more strongly under the influence of white vaudeville singers such as Nora Bayes and Fanny Brice than her southern contemporaries. Early in her career she sang "coon" songs and became an outstanding example of the group of black singers known as "cake-walking babies" to distinguish them from southern classic blues singers such as Ma Rainey and Bessie Smith . Some of her performances from the mid-1920s (she began recording in 1921) foreshadow the scat-singing devices later developed by Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald Later, in the 1930s, Waters found the mainstream of popular music, including jazz and congenial, and brought to it a combination of tragedy (in Harold Arlen's Stormy Weather , 1933) and comedy (in H. I. Marshall's You Can't Stop Me From Loving You , 1931) which, in its range, was unsurpassed by any other popular singer. Among the fine jazz instrumentalists who accompanied her in recording sessions were Fletcher Henderson (1921-6), Joe Smith (1922, 1924-7)

Waters, Ethel Waters Brown Brothers (b. Oct. 31, 1896/1900, Chester, Pa., U.S.d. Sept. 1, 1977, Chatsworth, Calif.), American blues and jazz singer and dramatic actress, associated with songs she made famous, particularly "Dinah," "Heat Wave," and "Stormy Weather." Her singing was based in the blues tradition, and her full-bodied voice had a wide range and slow vibrato. Many popular composers wrote songs for her, and during the 1930s she made records with such great jazz artists as Duke Ellington and Benny Goodman. In her autobiography, His Eye Is on the Sparrow (1951), Waters said of her early years of extreme poverty, "I stole food to live," and she described her marriage at the age of 12 while still attending convent school. At 13 she became a chambermaid in a Philadelphia hotel, and the same year she sang in public for the first time in a local nightclub. By the time she was 17 she was singing professionally in Baltimore at a weekly salary of $9. It was there that she became the first woman to sing the W.C. Handy
