Bessie Smith experienced a "wretched childhood". Her parents and a brother died while she was young. Her older sister Viola took charge of caring for her siblings and as a consequence, Bessie was unable to gain an education. To earn money for her impoverished household, Bessie and her brother Andrew busked on the streets of Chattanooga. She sang and danced as he played the guitar. They often performed on street corners for pennies, and their habitual location was in front of the White Elephant Saloon at Thirteenth and Elm streets, in the heart of the city's African-American community.

Bessie began forming her own act around 1913. Working a heavy theater schedule during the winter and performing in tent shows the rest of the year, Smith became the highest-paid black entertainer of her day and began traveling in her own 72-foot-long railroad car. Columbia Records publicity department nicknamed her "Queen of the Blues", but the national press soon upgraded her title to "Empress of the Blues". Smith's music stressed independence, fearlessness, and sexual freedom, implicitly arguing that working-class women did not have to alter their behavior to be worthy of respect.

Bessie Smith was born on April 15, 1894 in Chattanooga, Tennessee and died on September 26, 1937 in Clarksdale, Mississippi from critical injuries she suffered in a car crash at the age of 43
