EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures the youthful spirit of Manzi, the adopted daughter of renowned jazz singer Jenny Dolly, in the early 1930s. Manzi, whose real name was Klari, was adopted by Jenny Dolly, a popular figure in the jazz scene of the 1920s and beyond. The sisters shared a deep bond, with Manzi often accompanying her mother on stage as a dancer and occasional singer. The image showcases Manzi's playful and carefree nature, as she gazes off-camera with a mischievous smile, her curly hair cascading down her shoulders. Her stylish outfit, consisting of a flapper dress and Mary Janes, is indicative of the fashion trends of the era. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the close relationship between Jenny Dolly and her adopted daughter, who grew up in the vibrant world of jazz music and dance. The 1920s and 1930s were a pivotal time in the history of jazz music, with artists like Jenny Dolly and her contemporaries pushing the boundaries of what was possible in the genre. This photograph offers a glimpse into the personal lives of these musicians, revealing the human side of the jazz scene and the strong bonds that were formed between artists and their families. Manzi's story is a testament to the enduring impact of jazz music and the artists who brought it to life. This photograph is not only a valuable historical artifact, but also a poignant reminder of the rich cultural heritage that continues to inspire and captivate audiences today.
