On this second day of Black History Month we recognize Adelaide Louise Hall.
Adelaide Louise Hall was born in Brooklyn on October 20, 1901. Adelaide’s father, William Hall, taught piano at the Pratt Institute and encouraged her musically. As an all around entertainer and Jazz singer, Hall rose to stardom during the Harlem Renaissance. She sang, danced, and performed with the best: Paul Robeson, Duke Ellington, Bill “Bojangles” Robinson, Eubie Blake, Cab Calloway, Ethel Waters, and the Nicholas Brothers. She graced the stages of the famous Brooklyn Paramount and the opulent Fox Theatre (torn down 1971). She appeared on Broadway at the Liberty Theatre (closed 1933).
The Brooklyn Eagle writes about her on May 27, 1929, “That most stage folks enjoy their work is generally known, but that the pleasure of such a keen interest in their glamorous occupation be the actual secret of their success is illustrated in the picturesque case of Adelaide Hall….needless to say, (she) is head over heels in love with her career.”
