Original author's notes

[edit]

I wrote this article to fill in a red link from my new article on Ada "Bricktop" Smith, owner of the Paris nightclub. The information in Mabel Mercer is almost entirely refactored from Mabel Mercer Foundation's Website. I have a request in to them for GFDL licensing of a few photos. I hope future editors can fill in more information here, and originate more new articles on American singers of this era. paul klenk talk 06:17, 12 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Late Career Correction

[edit]

According to the original source material at the Mabel Mercer Foundation website, at the time of her July 4, 1977 performance, Mabel Mercer had not performed in England for 41 years. The original opening sentence in this section of the article stated that she had not been performing for 41 years. As stated elsewhere in this article, she had been living and actively performing in New York City since World War 2. I corrected this. Bebill 18:04, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
