Anita O’ Day: The Life of a Jazz Singer

Anita O’Day was a true jazz star and a lady with a past. Guided by O’Day’s sensuous voice, Cavolina and McCrudden’s fascinating documentary tracks the unconventional life and career of an exceptional, bold woman that never hesitated to go against the grain both in her music and in her personal life. A portrait of a jazz diva and a fresco of the swing golden era, Anita O’Day: The Life of a Jazz Singer was presented in the Tribeca Film Festival.
