Gloria Lynne
[1][2] She grew up in Harlem, and as a young girl, Lynne sang with the local African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church Choir.She shared the stage with contemporary night club vocal ensembles, and recorded as part of such groups as the Enchanters and the Dell-Tones in the 1950s.Although showing much promise early on, especially after TV appearances, including the Harry Belafonte Spectacular, her development suffered through poor management.Some unscrupulous recording executives profited while she was had limited financial resources—a victim of unpaid royalties—and only saved by the fact that she was able to work steadily and earn her money from live performances.Gloria and Richard Alleyne ran a production company, Family Bread Music Inc.[7] She died of a heart attack on October 15, 2013, in Newark, New Jersey, at the age of 83.
