To say she was a colorful character is putting it mildly! I would love to find a book that accurately tells the story of her life. Thanks again for another fabulous "lost" Bella.

I once tried to read a biography about the life of Miss Washington but it was toooo dry. The author wrote more about music(notes etc.)than she did the life about Miss Washington.

That is too bad. I actually favor her over Billie? I will checkout the video when I get home. I love your site! I always thought Dinah was held just as high as the others? That is too bad.

Everyone is thoroughly enjoying themselves, dancing and actively listening to the music, having a good time. It's just not the same today.

I was looking another AFro Diva to add to my tribute on www.myspace.com/1modestlady. Just little appreciation to the Afro Diva's out there that use their voices as a gift to us.
