With ties to Kansas City jazz and the creation of bebop, Mary Lou Williams has left her mark on our city, even having a street named after her. Join us as we highlight Mary Lou Williams in our collection from from her time in Kansas City recording with The Clouds to her conversion to Catholicism and religious influence in her music, and even her performing for the Kansas City Women’s Jazz Festival in the late 70s.
