About
Joe Lee was born in Burley-in-Wharfedale, near Leeds, on 16 May 1901. He won a scholarship to Leeds Grammar School, and showed such a talent for art that, in about 1915, his widowed mother managed to find enough money for him to attend Leeds College of Art. Here his contemporaries included Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth, and Henry Carr. Lee left the School of Art in 1918, and in 1919 took a correspondence course with Percy V. Bradshaw, sending specimens of his work to London papers. Despite the rejections, his mother found £20 for him to go to London, where he freelanced until the money ran out. He then found a job in the art department of an advertising agency.
Lee’s first published cartoon appeared in The Bystander in 1920, and in the following year, when still only nineteen, he became political cartoonist on the ailing Pall Mall Gazette, with a Press Gallery pass for the House of Commons. Strand Magazine described him as “the youngest of the men of his craft who have now an established reputation.” Lee spent hours sketching

Joe Lee Wilson
American singer
Musical artist
Joe Lee Wilson (December 22, 1935 – July 17, 2011)[1] was an American jazz singer from Bristow, Oklahoma, who lived in Europe since 1977.[2]
Biography
Part African-American and part Creek Native American,[3] Wilson was born in Bristow, Oklahoma, to farming parents Stella and Ellis Wilson.[1]
As his band's name, Joy of Jazz, suggests, Wilson's baritone personified the life-affirming nature of jazz and blues. Seeing Billie Holiday perform in 1951 began his interest in a music-industry career. Moving to Los Angeles at the age of 15, he went to Los Angeles High School, where he majored in music and sang in an a cappella choir. Graduating with honors in 1954, he won a scholarship to the Los Angeles Conservatory of Music, where he studied opera, leaving after a year and then attending Los Angeles Junior College.[4] He began singing with local bands in 1958 and toured the West Coast, where he sat in with Sarah Vaughan,[5] and down to Mexico.
