This man used to be my great uncle which I did not get to meet as I was born in Oct. of 56. I am shocked and sadden to see that he was against all the wonderful talent like Ertha Kitt, Duke Ellington or Cab Calloway. I did know my great aunt Jenny, his wife at the time who I loved. My sister said that he used to take her and my oldest sister downtown to see the movies such as Gidget. Thank you for this artical. It helps me know more about my relitives.
