What is Say it with music : the life and legacy of Jane Froman about?

The definitive biography of Jane Froman, singing star of radio, stage, screen, and television. Classically trained and groomed for an operatic career, Froman preferred popular music and used her gifts to interpret new songs by Jerome Kern, George Gershwin, Irving Berlin, and other major American composers. During her 30-plus-year career she introduced and promoted much of what is now recognized as the Great American Songbook. Although badly injured in an airplane crash on a USO tour, she returned to Europe on crutches to entertain and encourage WWII troups and to visit military hospitals. Subject of the award-winning movie With a Song in My Heart starring Susan Hayward. This biography, based on many years of research plus personal acquaintance with Jane Froman, provides in-depth coverage of her life (1907-1980) and continues with discussion of her musical legacy and ongoing fan base. Includes index, appendix, and over 100 personal photographs, many never before published.
