Happy Birthday Ella Fitzgerald! :) Fitzgerald was a jazz vocalist who was known as the "Queen of Jazz", and the "First Lady of Song". She was born on April 25, 1917, and died on June 15, 1996. I really like it when Google changes the face of Google.com to reflect an important person's birth date, or an important event in history, or an important time of year, like New Year's or the Fourth of July. For what it's worth, this makes me happy. I also feel that in certain instances, I learn something, like when they choose to celebrate the birth date of a lesser known scientist or author.
In any event, Ella Fitzgerald would have been 96 years old today, if she had lived.
