picture I like
Screenshot of Mary Ann Fisher, singer with the Ray Charles Band between 1955-1958, taken from the documentary Rovers, Wrestlers and Stars.
This picture of Mary Ann Fisher was taken from my documentary, Rovers, Wrestlers and Stars, which PBS-KET keeps on rebroadcasting. The next showings are scheduled for January.
Mary Ann passed away in 2004 just months after I interviewed her.
I keep on thinking a documentary about her should be my next project. I have a bunch of footage that I haven’t used with many stories about Ray Charles, Jimmy Scott, Joe Louis – all of whom had romantic relationships with Mary Ann at different times in her life.
