Lucy Ann Polk

Lucy Ann Polk (May 16, 1927 October 10, 2011[1]) was an American jazz and big band vocalist. Miss Polk is perhaps best known for her period with Les Brown's orchestra in the mid-fifties, a time when the band was considered to be at its best, featuring such talents as tenor saxophonist Dave Pell and trumpeter Don Fagerquist.[2] She also sang and recorded with several other bands, including Kay Kyser, Tommy Dorsey, and Dave Pell. Miss Polk won the Downbeat "Best Girl-Singer with Band" award in 1951, 1952, 1953 and 1954. She released three solo albums, only one of which has been reissued on CD, 1957's Lucky Lucy Ann.
