Me and My Father’s Shadow
by Dawn Williams
Both biography and autobiography, this book tells the story of Ted Lewis, The Jazz King who was the originator of The Big Bands. Lewis was considered by many of his contemporaries as the highest paid bandleader, recording artist, entertainer, and movie/radio/television personality of the 20th century. This story is told by his daughter, whom he never knew.
Although this is a work of nonfiction, some portions are fictionalized since the alternative – not including them at all – would have detracted from the overall truth of the story: ! Some anecdotal narrations and dialog are reconstructions or speculations ! In the interest of privacy and anonymity, pseudonyms are used for persons whose names are not biographically significant. Names of Ted Lewis’s relatives and of public officials and celebrities are accurately recounted. Visit the author’s Website to learn more.
