Mamie Smith
Mamie Smith (née Robinson; May 26, 1883 – September 16, 1946) was an American vaudeville singer, dancer, pianist and actress, who appeared in several films late in her career. As a vaudeville singer she performed a number of styles, including jazz and blues. She entered blues history by being the first African-American artist to make vocal blues recordings in 1920. Willie "The Lion" Smith (no relation) explained the background to that recording in his autobiography, ''Music on My Mind''. ==Early life== Mamie Robinson was probably born in Cincinnati, Ohio, although no records of her birth exist.〔〔 When she was ten years old, she found work touring with a white act called the Four Dancing Mitchells.〔 As a teenager, she danced in Salem Tutt Whitney's Smart Set.〔 In 1913, she left the Tutt Brothers to sing in clubs in Harlem and married a singer named William "Smitty" Smith.〔
