|a Arthur Victor "Vic" Dickenson was an African American jazz trombonist born in Xenia, Ohio. Dickenson began his career in the early 1920s when he formed a band with his brother Carlos and moved to Columbus, Ohio. Thereafter he traveled frequently and played with different groups. Dickenson joined Blanche Calloway's orchestra in the early 1930s and played with the Count Basie Orchestra in 1940-1941. In 1943, he joined a sextet led by pianist Eddie Heywood. Dickenson subsequently led his own bands from the late 1940s to the mid-1950s. In 1953, he recorded The Vic Dickenson Showcase for Vanguard with Ed Hall on clarinet and Ruby Braff on trumpet. Dickenson appeared on the CBS television program "The Sound of Jazz" in 1957 with Count Basie, Coleman Hawkins, Roy Eldridge, Gerry Mulligan, and Billie Holiday, and in 1958, he was among the 57 jazz musicians photographed by Art Kane for Esquire magazine's "A Great Day in Harlem" shoot. In the 1950s, Dickenson often performed with Bobby Hackett. He also collaborated with Sidney Bechet, Bucky Clayton, and Pee Wee Russell. In the 1960s, Dickenson was a member of the jazz ensemble Saints and Sinners, and he joined the World's Greatest Jazz Band in the 1970s. In 1982, the Vic Dickenson Quintet was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Jazz Instrumental Performance, Group. Dickenson met Otealia Foyer in 1932, and they married four years later. He died in New York in 1984
