Louis Armstrong, connu tout au long de sa longue carrière sous des surnoms tels que "Satchmo", "Pops" ou simplement "Louie", était un trompettiste, compositeur, chanteur et parfois acteur, ainsi que l'une des figures les plus influentes de l'histoire du jazz. Né et élevé à la Nouvelle-Orléans, où le jazz lui-même aurait débuté, Armstrong a commencé sa carrière en 1918, en jouant du cornet dans des fanfares et sur des bateaux le long du Mississippi. C'est là qu'il a attiré l'attention de son futur mentor, King Oliver, en rejoignant son groupe à Chicago, où il a tissé des liens avec d'autres musiciens de jazz populaires comme Hoagy Carmichael et sa première femme Lil Hardin Armstrong. En 1924, Louie s'installe à New York pour jouer dans l'orchestre de Fletcher Henderson. C'est à cette époque qu'il passe du cornet à la trompette afin de mieux s'intégrer aux autres musiciens de sa section. C'est également à cette époque qu'il développe son style de jeu émotionnel, qui inclut le chant et les récits de sa vie à la Nouvelle-Orléans. L'année suivante, Armstrong forme son propre groupe, jouant pour des gangsters notoires de l'époque, tels qu'Al Capone et Dutch Schultz. Il commence également à se faire connaître en tant que chanteur, pionnier de ce que l'on appelle aujourd'hui le "scat singing". Il est probablement plus connu pour avoir repris des chansons qui sont aujourd'hui considérées comme des standards, telles que "La Vie En Rose" et "What a Wonderful World", deux de ses dix-neuf disques seulement ayant atteint le Top 10 du Billboard. Il est reconnaissable dans le monde entier grâce à sa voix rocailleuse et, dans les années 1960, il était considéré comme une icône américaine largement appréciée et un ambassadeur culturel du jazz. Armstrong a également été l'une des premières personnalités noires à être largement acceptées dans la société blanche, tant sur scène qu'en dehors. Il a joué avec certaines des plus grandes figures du jazz, tant noires que blanches, dont Duke Ellington, Bing Crosby et surtout Ella Fitzgerald. Il a également joué dans plus d'une douzaine de films hollywoodiens et a animé sa propre émission de radio diffusée au niveau national.
