Gerri Granger

She projects her voice skillfully and easily, making particular good use of the rich, lower areas of her range. She phrases perceptively, enunciates clearly and does it all with a casual throwaway manner as she takes confident command of the stage. - JOHN S. WILSON - New York Times

Until GERRI GANGER by chance won a amateur night contest at Teddy Powell's Lounge in Newark, N.J. When she was 14, she had no thoughts of becoming a professional singer, but, it was apparent and quickly acknowledged that GERRI has a "GIFT", that would not be stilled. She would go on to pursue her many other Talents and Life, but always, always, there was her singing....

After graduation from Weequarhic Hugh School in Irvington, N.J., Gerri received an Art Scholarship to study Industrial Design, finishing at New York University. Meanwhile...She had also begun to sing throughout the area with Lloyd Price 15 piece band. "That's when I fell in love with the "BIG BAND" sound.

One Turning point came when GERRI met and joined the LOU PAYNE band playing the Concord Hotel in Catskills, upstate N.Y. While appearing there she was signed by the William Morris Agency, who promptly booked her on the Kraft Music Hall with ED MCMANN, and that began her odyssey through TV land.

GERRI's TV credits include ED SULLIVAN, JOHNNY CARSON, Mike Douglas, Merve Griffen, David Frost, Virginia Graham, and Jonathan Winters. She was a regular on a weekly variety series "What's It All About World" with Dean Jones plus a TV Variety Special "The SINGERS" with Mel Torme and Jack Jones.

Through the William Morris Agency GERRI was introduced tot the fantastic showman SAMMY DAVIS JR. with whom a delightfully long and studious relationship developed. Between her ever-present smile Granger admits, "He was my Mentor" ... Watching her showmanship today one can see SAMMY's fine hand in the way Gerri develops and handles an audience.

Determination has always played a big part in Gerri Granger's life when she crashed landed on a solo flight, where she lived in Nigeria, West Africa, it made her more determined than ever to get her private pilot license. So back to the States and a Colorado Flight School.

When she was told she had to speak German to sing on a German TV series, back she went to Switzerland (where she also lived awhile) to take an intensive Language course.

What is GERRI GRANGER up to now? After what she calls her "Hiatus" from the stage, she has taken her "Act" on the "High Seas" .... Where you might catch her sailing to "anyplace" that's "far-away," where she has never been before. For the last two years GERRI has also been working on original song material for an upcoming CD Release. She worked on a very exciting music project in Fort Lee, N.J. with music legend "Yuochio Oda." GERRI is presently working on her autobiography and she hopes to release here book sometime in 2006.

GERRI borrows this famous line: "I'm back on the road again, making music with and for my friends.
