Teri Thornton
Jazz Singer |
- American jazz singer.
- First performed in local Detroit clubs in the 1950s.
- She moved to New York City in the 1960s, where she found work singing for television advertisements, and recorded for several different labels.
- Late in the 1960s Thornton receded from view. She played clubs in New York after moving back there from Los Angeles in 1983, and in the 1990s she fully revived her career.
- In 1998, she won the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz Vocal Competition in Washington, DC. (Singers Jane Monheit, Tierney Sutton and Roberta Gambarini were runners-up in the same competition.)
- Thornton signed with Verve, which released "I'll Be Easy to Find."
- In 1998, she was diagnosed with bladder cancer, and died of the disease in 2000.
