Helen O'Connell - Big Band Singer w/Jimmy Dorsey/Signed Photo
Helen O'Connell (1920-1993) -  American
singer, actress, and hostess,
described as "the quintessential big band singer of the 1940s".
O'Connell launched her career as a big-band singer with Larry Funk and his Band of a Thousand Melodies. She was singing with Funk's band in Greenwich Village  when Jimmy Dorsey's manager discovered her.
O'Connell joined the Dorsey band in 1939 and achieved her best selling records in the early 1940s with  “Green Eyes”, “Amapola”, “Tangerine” and “Yours”. O'Connell was selected by Down Beat readers as best female singer in 1940 and 1941 and won the 1940 Metronome  magazine poll for best female vocalist.
