About Alberta Hunter
One of the earliest recorded blues acts, Hunter sang with a clarity of diction and tone that made her music accessible to white audiences. At the height of her popularity, she recorded with nearly all her great jazz contemporaries, among them Louis Armstrong, Fats Waller, and Fletcher Henderson. In the '30s Hunter branched out to Broadway. She ended her career in the '80s as a star of the New York cabaret scene.
