Ella Fitzgerald - A Tribute on Her Birthday

If Ella Fitzgerald were alive today, it would have been her 96th birthday. One of the world's greatest singers, fondly known as 'The First Lady of Song' and the 'Queen of Jazz', we pay tribute to the jazz and blues guru by telling the story of this extraordinary woman. Listen in to hear some wonderful clips of her songs, and find out how a homeless teenager became the celebrity that was Ella Fitzgerald.
