:::Another morning...thanks for putting in those greats, but Ira Gershwin should not be there: he was his brother's lyricist and is not considered a ''famous musician''. (He wrote the words to a song called ''The Great American Folksong (is a rag)''. That's why I mentioned him...which reminds me: [[Scott Joplin]] should be there.) I enjoyed your choice of the divine Joséphine. The French will be happy. (But I still hate Steve Lawrence being there when there are literally thousands of better candidates!)

JM--Let me ask my question in a different way, so I can be of help without messing up the article...What is your intention for this article, your goal: A) a comprehensive list of '''all''' famous American artists [whether they be really really famous or just a tiny bit famous], B) a list of the '''most''' famous American artists, or C) a list of the most '''influential''' American artists?--[[User:RossC|RossC]] 13:58, 24 November 2008 (EST)
