Famous people in soaring
Mel Torme'.
Jazz singer, arranger, author of the only biography of Buddy Rich.
As a booking agent in Florida, I would meet him backstage after concerts in Miami to talk gliders, much to the frustration of the silver haired ladies who wanted to talk about the old days. His manager would have to practically drag him onto the bus before we were finished talking about soaring. Amazing musician and singer.
