Kitty Brown

Catherine Brown, known as Kitty Brown (October 1899 – after 1990), was an American classic female blues singer. She sometimes used the pseudonyms Bessie Williams (she was not the only performer to use this name), Jane White, Dixie Gray, Rosa Green, and Mazie Leroy. As was becoming more common then, much of Brown's material came from the music-publishing arm of her record label. At a later session she recorded "Family Skeleton Blues", one of her more beguiling records.

It is likely that contractual agreements with record labels caused her to record with other companies under assumed names, some of which are difficult to verify. However, Brown has been identified as the singer on several records released on the Domino label, for which she was billed as Williams. Her recordings include the songs "Evil Blues", "Mean Eyes (Too Late Blues)", "Deceitful Blues", "I Don't Let No One Man Worry Me", "He's Never Gonna Throw Me Down", "Keep On Going", "Family Skeleton Blues", "I Wanna Jazz Some More", and "One of These Days".

According to the researchers Bob Eagle and Eric LeBlanc, she was living in a nursing home in Manhattan in 1990. The date of her death is unknown.
