about

His jazz career began in 1937 with clarinetist Joe Marsala. He became a member of big bands led by Bunny Berigan and Artie Shaw.[1][3] When he was home from touring with Shaw, he gave drum lessons to a 14-year-old Mel Brooks for six months.[4] At 21, he participated in his first major recording with the Vic Schoen Orchestra who backed the Andrews Sisters.[5]

In 1942, Rich left the Dorsey band to join the United States Marine Corps, in which he served as a judo instructor, never saw combat, and was discharged due to medical reasons.[6] After leaving the Marines, he returned to the Dorsey band. In 1946, with financial support from Frank Sinatra, he formed a band and continued to lead bands intermittently until the early 1950s.[2]:92, 95[7]
