Cab Calloway, American Jazz Musician
Cab Calloway, Columbia studio, New York, N.Y., ca. Mar. 1947. Cabell "Cab" Calloway III (1907 -1994) was an American jazz singer, dancer, bandleader and actor. He was associated with the Cotton Club in Harlem, New York City, where he was a regular performer and became a popular vocalist of the swing era, mixing jazz and vaudeville. He led one of the United States' most popular big bands from the early 1930s to the late 1940s. He reached the Billboard charts in five consecutive decades (1930s–1970s) and was the first African-American musician to sell a million records from a single song and to have a nationally syndicated radio show. In 1993, Calloway received the National Medal of Arts from the United States Congress. He posthumously received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2008. His song "Minnie the Moocher" was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1999 and added to the Library of Congress' National Recording Registry in 2019. He is also inducted into the Big Band and Jazz Hall of Fame and the International Jazz Hall of Fame.
