I had no idea who Patricia Prattis Jennings was until I was listening to a podcast recently (Stuff You Should Know - defiantly recommend), and they read a letter she sent into the podcasters. The hosts of the show were talking about what a remarkable woman she is, so I decided to look her up later that same day. I was not disappointed.
Patricia Prattis Jennings was the first African American woman to earn a contract with an American national symphony. This interview with the talented pianist is truly inspiring. Her story is uplifting, and I'm sure it will put a smile on your face!
