Fred Smith 1919 - 2007

Born in Cleveland, Ohio, Fred always had a love of music - all types.  He was a lifetime member of the Musicians Union, ASCAP, Dramatists Guild and the National Academy of Popular Music.

He played the string bass, did vocals in bands, trios, quartets and quintets mostly around the East Coast, Atlantic City, as well as the Cleveland area.

He finished college after a stint in the service with a degree in Music and a minor in Psychology.  It was in the service where he began writing music.

He was a great father and will be truly missed.
