Rare video clips, photographic portraits, candid snapshots, musical scores, personal notes, correspondence, drawings, and watercolors will reveal the sometimes exuberant, sometimes painful-but always vibrant-art and life of jazz singers. The materials for the exhibition "Jazz Singers" are drawn mainly from the Library of Congress Music Division's collections, including the photographs of William P. Gottlieb and the papers of Max Roach, Chet Baker, and Shirley Horn. Additional items are from the Library's Prints and Photographs Division; Motion Picture, Broadcasting, and Recorded Sound Division; and American Folk-life Center.
