The 37 women profiled here are representative of the many blueswomen who performed in the United States through the end of World War II. Some are well known (Lucille Bogan and Sippie Wallace), but many are obscure (such as Lil Johnson, Liza Brown and Margaret Whitmire). Biographical profiles are followed by a sampling of the performers' lyrics.
