• Name	DICKINSON, Katharine
  Birth	18 Mar 1873  [2]
  Gender	Female
  Death	1957  [3]
  Notes	From Frederica Trapnell: Mrs. Katie Tucker was an accomplished singer of folk songs – long before the popularity of the modern version of that form of music.  “Her chatty lecture-recitals on Afro-American folk songs are a most delightful supplement…and her material is exceedingly interesting from the musical point of view.  Her enthusiasm is contagious, her material is fascinating, and her comment is the most instructive sidelight on the significance of the Afro-American folk song heard in concert halls.”  (Eric Delamarter, Chicago Critic). Dr. John A. Lomax of Harvard University made recordings of her songs and told her that she had the best collection in America.  Mrs. Tucker died in 1957 and the Library of Congress now has her collection of songs [4]
