[Dixielandjazz] Marian McPartland

[Bob Smith]

Dear Marek,

Marian McPartland has an entry in the Danish (and here I'm translating from 
the Danish) "Who, What, Where in Music JAZZ". The entry reads:
McPARTLAND, Marian (Marian Margaret Turner),  English-American pianist, born 
20.3.1920 in Windsor. Met Jimmy McPartland in France 1944 and married him in 
March 1945. They arrived in USA at the beginning of 1946 and together 
started an orchestra in which she made her debut under her at that time 
professional name, Marian Page. She went over to playing modern jazz and 
formed in 1951 her own trio, that since has played at clubs such as 'The 
Composer' and 'Hickory House' in New York and 'London House' in Chicago and 
has made a series of records. Played in 1963 with Benny Goodman.

The copy of this book that I have was published in 1969, and editing was 
concluded 1.10.1969.

The publisher is the Danish "Politikens Forlag"
Index: ISBN 87 567 1147 6
Main Editors: Birger Jørgensen and Knud Sandvej
If the surname of Birger is corrupted, the second letter is the Scandinavian 
diphthong OE written as an o with a line through it.

Kind Regards

Bob Smith
