EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Billie Holiday, the legendary jazz singer, backstage at Carnegie Hall in New York City during her concert on March 24, 1946. Known as "Lady Day," Eleanora Fagan was at the height of her career during the Golden Age of Jazz in the 1940s. Dressed in a simple yet elegant dress with a striking hairstyle, Holiday exudes confidence and charm as she poses for photographer William Paul Gottlieb. The image captures the essence of the jazz era, with its rich heritage and unique fashion trends. The setting, Carnegie Hall, adds to the iconic status of this photograph, as it was one of the most prestigious concert venues in the country during that time. This photograph is a testament to the enduring influence of Billie Holiday on American music and culture, and serves as a reminder of the important role that jazz played during the forties. The image, taken by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb, is a valuable addition to the Library of Congress's extensive collection of historical photographs.
