Artie Shaw Biography
One of the more complex characters in jazz, Artie Shaw was a consummate clarinetist and musical innovator who was among the first to combine jazz with modern classical music. And at the height of the swing era, he was a superstar who recorded a string of hit songs. However, he detested the rituals of celebrity, and he frequently dropped out of music. After putting together one of his finest groups in the mid 1950s, he retired from music altogether. Shaw then pursued a career as a writer, and his books received glowing praise, though never enough to overshadow the memory of his music. He passed away in 2004 at the ripe old age of 94.
