I must have been a baby of the Roaring 20's in my previous life; I just love the sight, sound, and scent of the Glorious Twenties.
Sure, I am connected to the 1920's. My father was born in 1921 and my mother in 1918.

I am also connected to the 1920's era because I love the fictional character of Jay Gatsby, who lived in the romantic era of the Roaring 20's.
And I love jazz
, a musical style that originated at the beginning of the 20th century in black communities in the Southern United States and evolved into the distinctive style of New Orleans starting in the 1910's, and further evolved and was accepted into mainstream music from the 1920's and into the 70's.
