Glenn Miller, American big band trombonist, arranger, composer, and bandleader in the swing era (March 1, 1904 - disappeared December 15, 1944) was born Alton Glenn Miller in Carilinda, Iowa. Glenn Miller was the best-selling recording artist from 1939 to 1942, leading one of the best-known big bands. Miller's recordings include "In the Mood", "Moonlight Serenade", "Pennsylvania 6-5000", "Chattanooga Choo Choo", "A String of Pearls", "At Last", "(I've Got a Gal In) Kalamazoo", "American Patrol", "Tuxedo Junction", "Elmer's Tune", and "Little Brown Jug". In just four years Glenn Miller scored 16 number-one records and 69 top ten hits - more than Elvis Presley (38 top 10s) and the Beatles (33 top 10s) did in their careers. On December 15, 1944, while he was traveling to entertain U.S. troops in Paris during World War II, Miller's aircraft disappeared in bad weather over the English Channel.
