One of the finest vocalists of the swing era, Helen Ward possessed a very appealing sound and was always swinging. Although she originally retired quite early and at the peak of her fame, fortunately she returned to music many times in later years.
Ward took piano lessons while quite young and was singing as a teenager. She performed on radio station WOR in New York in 1933, became a regular at NBC and was hired as Benny Goodman's singer for the "Let's Dance" radio show in 1934.
