A Place in Time - Remembering Martha Jean Awkerman
Master Sgt. Martha Jean Awkerman left an indelible mark as a pioneer for women brass players and as a legendary musical icon. She spent 22 years of her distinguished musical career with the Long Beach (Calif.) Municipal Band, playing at different concert venues, and was the first woman ever taken into that organization. She also worked with many popular singers, including Sarah Vaughn, Della Reese, Charo, Lennon Sisters, Nat King Cole, and Ethyl Merman. Her life speaks volumes for all women brass players who set their sights high and persevere in attaining their musical goals. (Official Air Force photo.)

A Place in Time - Remembering Martha Jean Awkerman
Master Sgt. Martha Jean "Martye" Awkerman, an accomplished trumpet player and former Cornet Soloist and dance band leader with the WAF Band, was stationed at Lackland AFB from 1954-1961. The band toured all over the U.S. and Puerto Rico. At that time, The USAF Band in Washington, DC was not open to female musicians. Martye’s recognized musical achievements were evidenced by her involvement in popular TV programs and shows, such as “What’s My Line”, “Johnny Carson Show”, and the “Today Show.” (Official Air Force photo.)
