Debby Moore

Born:

Born in Lincolnville in 1928 as Emmaline Maultsby, Debbie attended Excelsior School and sang in the choir at Trinity Methodist Church, in St. Augustine.

In the course of her international career, she sang with Earl "Fatha" Hines, toured Asia representing the United States, made movies in Japan, and wrote songs. Some of her songs were recorded by Woody Herman and Louis Prima; others she sang herself on her 1959 record My Kind of Blues. When she returned to Saint Augustine in the 1970's there were no opportunities for a Black jazz performer and she found work as a waitress and later at the Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind
