Description
Hazel Dorothy Scott (June 11, 1920 – October 2, 1981) was a Trinidadian-born jazz and classical pianist and singer; she also performed as herself in several films. Born in Port of Spain, Hazel was taken at the age of four by her mother to New York. Recognized early as a musical prodigy, Scott studied at the age of eight at the Juilliard School. She began performing in a jazz band in her teens and was performing on radio at age 16. In the 1930s and 1940s she was a prominent jazz singer. In 1950, she became the first woman of color to have her own TV show, The Hazel Scott Show. In the late 1950s she moved to Paris and performed in France, not returning to the United States until 1967.
