Singer
Clara Ann Fowler known by her stage name Patti Page, was an American singer of pop and country music.
Patti Page was born on November 8, 1927, in Claremore, Oklahoma. She was raised in Foraker, Hardy, Muskogee and Avant, Oklahoma, before attending Daniel Webster High School in Tulsa, from which she graduated in 1945. Patti Page started her career as a singer with Al Clauser and his Oklahoma Outlaws at KTUL. She became a featured performer on a 15-minute radio program on KTUL, Tulsa, Oklahoma, at age 18. Rael asked her to join the band he managed, the "Jimmy Joy Band". Rael would later become Page's personal manager, after leaving the band. Page toured the country with the "Jimmy Joy Band" in 1946. The band eventually ended up in Chicago, Illinois, where in 1947, Page sang with a small group led by popular orchestra leader, Benny Goodman. This led to Page signing her first recording contract with Mercury Records.
Patti Page recorded several songs with Al Clauser & His Oklahoma Outlaws (1946), The Eddie Getz Orchestra, and the George Barnes Trio (1947). Page recorded her first hit single, "Confess", in 1947.
Patti Page died on 1 January 2013 at the Seacrest Village Retirement Community in Encinitas, California. She was 85 years old.
