Biography

Ivie Anderson (sometimes Ivy) (July 10, 1904 - December 28, 1949) was a jazz performer and singer, best known for performing with Duke Ellington's orchestra between 1931 and 1942.

Anderson was born in Gilroy, California. With a sweet clear singing voice, she was a popular attraction with Ellington's band. Her performance of "Stormy Weather" in the short film Bundle of Blues (1933) was eclipsed by the later and far better known version sung by Lena Horne in Horne's movie also entitled Stormy Weather (1943).
