(August 20th 1905 - January 15th 1964)
Born in Vernon, Texas he was a largely self-taught trombone stylist and singer who is regarded as the "Father of Jazz Trombone" for liberating the instrument from its strictly tailgate origins. Nicknamed "Big T." he also developed novelty effects for which he is considered the most innovative trombone player of the pre-bebop era.
