Fitzgerald began her career in 1934 after winning a contest at the Apollo. Like Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald experienced the racism of her time period and was discriminated against in many venues. However, she did receive the opportunity to play at the popular Mocambo Club due to Marilyn Monroe’s promise to the venue owner that she would attend the club each night Fitzgerald played. Despite the racism she encountered, Ella Fitzgerald ultimately became one of the most successful artists in her time, and won thirteen Grammy awards and the National Medal of Arts throughout her career. In addition to her musical career, Fitzgerald was also very charitable towards children’s organizations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOther pins available.","brand":"Abrodos Music Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45928062943460,"sku":"Lapel-Fitz","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/3860\/8612\/files\/27c757bb-0597-425c-ac95-0694fc0307f8.jpg?v=1736082537","url":"https:\/\/abrodosmusic.com\/products\/lapel-pin-ella-fitzgerald-lapel-pin","provider":"Abrodos Music Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
