Description: Tucker's comic and singing styles are credited with influencing later female entertainers, including Mae West, Rusty Warren, Carol Channing, Totie Fields, Joan Rivers, Roseanne Barr, Ethel Merman, "Mama" Cass Elliot of the Mamas & the Papas, and Bette Midler, who has included Tuck as one of her stage characters. She also influenced Miami-based radio and television host-cum-singer Peppy Fields, sister of noted pianist Irving Fields, whom Variety and Billboard magazines called the "Sophie Tucker of Miami".[26]Probably the greatest influence on Tucker's later song delivery was Clarice Vance (1870–1961). They appeared many times on the same vaudeville bill. Sophie made her first recordings in 1910, and Clarice made her final records in 1909. Clarice had perfected and was known for her subtle narrative talk-singing style that Sophie later used to her advantage when her vocal range became increasingly limited. At the time that Clarice Vance was using the narrative style, it was unique to her among women entertainers.[6] Here is a list of other autographs available:"The Three Sons”; Morty, Artie and AlAndrew Sisters (all of them)Anne JefferiesAnton KarasBeatrice KayBenny GoodmanBill CullenBill LawrenceBill SternBilly EchstineBilly GillbertBob HopeCarmen CavaliaroCarmen MirandaCharles LaughtonCharley Shaver/Louis Belson/Tommy DorseyCliff Grass/ Carmen LombardoClyde McCoyConstance MooreDan RodneyDella and Andy RussellDenise DardyDesi ArnazDick ContinoDick HaymesDick KolmarDouglas Fairbanks Jr.Duke EllingtonEdgar BerganEthel SmithFaye EmersonFrankie CarleFrankie LaineFred McMurryGary MooreGene AutryGeorge RockGloria SwansonGuy LombardoHenny YoungmanHenry BusseHenry MorganHildegardHop a long CassidyHorace HeidtIlona MasseyIna Ray HuttonIrene DunneJack BennyJack Costanzo/Sonny Sparks/jenny Ashley/Joe Comfort (trio)Jack LaRue/Nat King ColeJames MeltonJames WhitmoreJanis CarterJanis PageJerry ColonaJoan EvansJohn LoderJosephine BakerLarry RossLaura Leslie/Tony Alamo/Don CornellLionel HamptonLois JourdanLon McCallisterLouis ArmstrongLouis PrimaMae WestMary MartinMilton BerleMonty WooleyNelson EddyPatti PagePeggy Lee/Dave BarbourPhil Harris Ralph GleasonRay BolgerRay NobleRex HarrisonRhonda FlemmingRudy ValleeRuth RomanSkitch Henderson/Ray HithertonSophie TuckerStan KentonSylvia SydneyTed LewisTed WeemsXavier Cugat a little gossipy : Reports and accounts of Cantor's early life often conflict with one another. What is known is that he was born in New York City, the son of Mechel Iskowitz (also Michael), an amateur violinist, and his wife Meta Kantrowitz Iskowitz (also Maite), a young Jewish couple from Russia.[4] It is generally accepted that he was born in 1892, though the day is subject to debate, with either January 31 or Rosh Hashanah, which was on September 10 or September 11, being reported.[5][6][7] Although it was reported Cantor was an orphan, his mother dying in childbirth and his father of pneumonia, official records say otherwise; Meta died from complications of tuberculosis in July 1894 and the fate of Mechel is unclear, as no death certificate exists for him. There is also discrepancy as to his name; both his 1957 autobiography and The New York Timesobituary for Cantor report his birth name as Isidore Iskowitch, although some articles published after the 20th century give his birth name as Edward (a nickname given him by his future wife, Ida, in 1913) or Israel Itzkowitz.[8][5] His grandmother, Esther Kantrowitz (died January 29, 1917), took custody of him, and referred to him as Izzy and Itchik, both diminutives for Isidor, and his last name, due to a clerical error, was thought to be Kantrowitz and shortened to Kanter.[5] No birth certificate existed for him, though this is not unusual for someone born in New York in the 19th century.
