[Dixielandjazz] Women in Jazz - was Singers

[John McClernan]

Marek,
Christine Bendinger (or LeDain - sp?) from Appleton, WI.
She's been a great friend for almost 40 years.
Have not seen her since Joe Terra passed away. She was playing the  
Big Apple Circus at the time.
I'm glad you mentioned her. Tweaks my memory to get in touch again.
Cheers,
John
