About this listen
Season 31, Episode 4
Artie Shaw
The lovely and fantastic Simone O. Elias, author of “Old Films, Young Eyes: A Teenage Take on Hollywood's Golden Age,” joins host Sonia Mansfield to talk about Artie Shaw.
Artie Shaw played the jazz clarinet and was a big-band leader who reigned supreme as one of the kings of swing with his recordings of "Begin the Beguine," "Lady Be Good," and "Star Dust" in the late 1930s and 40s. He was also an abusive husband, who was married 8 times, ANNNND, he dropped some names at the House of Un-American Activities in the 1950s. What a creep.
