Corky Hale (Jazz Harpist, Pianist and Vocalist) was born in a small mid-western farm town and started taking piano lessons at age three. At age seven, while vacationing with her family in Florida, Hale was heard in the lobby of her hotel picking out tunes on the piano by House bandleader, Horace Heidt. Heidt had a little band jacket made for her and featured her for the next few weeks in the evening show. She began studying piano at Chicago Conservatory at the age of seven, and harp at the age of eight.

She has performed at The White House with Tony Bennett, soloed with Barbra Streisand in Central Park and at the Hollywood Bowl, and performed with Björk on her MTV Special in London. Hale has also appeared with George Michael at London's Royal Albert Hall and Washington, D.C.'s RFK Stadium. She has played harp for Liberace (on his television show and at Madison Square Garden) and Judy Collins, piano for Billie Holiday, Mel Tormé and Peggy Lee, and sung with the bands of Harry James, Ray Anthony and Jerry Gray.

Hale's harp, piano and vocals can be heard on her five albums "CORKY!" (www.cdbaby.com and www.amazon.com); "Have Yourself A Jazzy Little Christmas - Corky Hale" (www.cdbaby.com and www.amazon.com); "Corky Hale Plays George Gershwin & Vernon Duke" (www.cdbaby.com); "Corky Hale - Harp Beat" and on her most recent CD, "Corky Hale and Friends...I'm Glad There Is You."
