She was playing at the Three Deuces, a jazz club, when a friend took her to hear Billie Holiday at the Garrick Stage Bar. Club owner Joe Sherman was so impressed with her singing “I Understand” that he hired her. During her year at the Garrick—she sang upstairs while Holiday performed in the downstairs room. Lionel Hampton came to hear Dinah at the Garrick. Hampton's visit brought an offer, and Washington worked as his female band vocalist. She stayed with Hampton's band until 1946, when she was signed for Mercury Records as a solo singer. In 1959, she had her first top ten pop hit, with a version of “What a Difference a Day Makes”which made Number 4 on the US pop chart. Washington produced 45 R&B-charted hits between 1948 and 1961, including 16 Top 15 placements between 1948 and 1950.
