Hello merry TPIN'ers -
Over the years I have come across two or three solos by Jimmy Zitto in the
scores being played. I have never heard his name mentioned,and know nothing
about him. Can anyone out there in TPIN land please tell me something about
him. Many thanks. Regards, Stan Cooper.

What I have seen on the 'net about him is:

>From the June Haver movie star bio http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0369792/bio
"Married Jimmy Zito (9 March
<http://www.imdb.com/OnThisDay?day=9&month=March>  1947
<http://www.imdb.com/MarriedInYear?1947>  - 25 March
<http://www.imdb.com/OnThisDay?day=25&month=March>  1948) (divorced)"
"By now (1949) it was obvious that she was being groomed to take over the
Fox throne held by Betty Grable <http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0002107/> "
(Mrs. Harry James).

Jimmy dubbed the trumpet for Juano Hernandez in the Kirk Douglas / Harry
James movie "Young Man With A Horn".
