Rally 'Round The Cannon - 10.26.11

Columnist Gregg Lange '70 offers an appreciation of Ella Fitzgerald, who came full circle at Princeton, from her first performance on campus, at a fall dance in 1936, to her final bow, when she received an honorary degree at Commencement in 1990. As the degree citation said, Fitzgerald's voice was "as flexibly virtuosic as an instrument and as warmly human as she." (Photo by William Gottleib, courtesy of the Library of Congress)
