Born Eleanora Fagan (7 April 1915 to 17 July 1959), Billie Holiday, Lady Day, had a 30-year career writing and performing music. Holiday wowed audiences with her vocal style and tempo. She drew audiences to her with her warmth and wit. Holiday was a musical genius. No one will ever match the influence she had in her field. Listening to her music as often as I do, the only difference today is remembering that this is the anniversary of her death.
