[Dixielandjazz] Marian McPartland

[Marek Boym]

Dear Bob,
Accordint to the Wikipedia , Marian McPartland was born March 20,
1918.  While U do realize that Wikipedia is not a very reliable
source, this information is based on Hasson, Claire "Marian
McPartland: Jazz Pianist: An Overview of a Career", the  PhD Thesis of
Ckaire Hasson.
Cheers
