'''Mary Margaret Morgan''' was born on December 3, 1931, in Mancos,
Colorado. After moving with her family to California, while serving
as class treasurer in high school, she was given the nickname
“Jaye P” after the famous banker J.P. Morgan.
Singing at school occasions prepared her for becoming a
vocalist with the Frank DeVol orchestra after graduation
when within a year Jaye P. Morgan had a top ten recording,
“Life Is Just a Bowl of Cherries”.
In 1954, “That’s All I Want from You” peaked at #3 on the
Hit Parade. The following year in 1955, "Danger, Heartbreak Ahead",
"If You Don't Want My Love", “The Longest Walk”, "Pepperhot Baby”
and a duet with Perry Como, “Two Lost Souls” continued
Jaye P. Morgan’s hit streak.
More chart action would come from her version of Johnny Cash’s
“I Walk the Line”, Elvis’ “Are You Lonesome Tonight” & “Miss You”.
The popular singer, actress and comedienne became a household
name in the 1950’s, with regular television appearances on the
Perry Como, Ed Sullivan and Johnny Carson television shows.
Jaye P. Morgan also had her own national TV show in 1956.
Adding to her career are several appearances on ''My Three Sons'',
''Ozzie and Harriet'', the popular comedy series ''The Odd Couple'',
''The Gong Show Movie'', ''Night Patrol'' and
''Home Alone 2: Lost In New York''.
