Maxine Sullivan was an American jazz vocalist and performer. Her musical career spanned from the mid 1930s through to her death in 1987. She is best known for her 1937 recording of a swing version of the Scottish folk song “Loch Lomond”. Throughout her career, Sullivan also appeared as a performer on film as well as on stage. A precursor to better-known later vocalists such as Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, and Sarah Vaughan, Maxine Sullivan is considered one of the best jazz vocalists of the 1930s. Sullivan was posthumously inducted into the Big Band and Jazz Hall of Fame in 1998.
