Kurz-Bio:
Die Sängerin Gogi Grant wurde am 20. September 1924 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, als Myrtle Audrey Arinsberg geboren und verstarb am 10. März 2016 in Los Angeles, Kalifornien. Mit Demo-Aufnahmen, die sie im Jahre 1952 unter den Pseudonymen Audrey Brown bzw. Audrey Grant machte, wurde RCA Victor auf sie aufmerksam und es kam zu den ersten Veröffentlichungen, aber nicht als Audrey Brown bzw. Audrey Grant, denn diese Namen gefielen Dave Kapp, dem Leiter der A&R-Abteilung bei RCA Victor, nicht, weshalb er sie Gogi Grant "taufte".
