Bronze Statue of W.C. Handy in Handy Park, Beale Street, Memphis

William Christopher Handy (November 16, 1873 – March 28, 1958) was an American blues composer and musician. He was widely known as the "Father of the Blues".

Handy remains among the most influential of American songwriters. Though he was one of many musicians who played the distinctively American form of music known as the blues, he is credited with giving it its contemporary form. While Handy was not the first to publish music in the blues form, he took the blues from a regional music style (Delta blues) with a limited audience to one of the dominant national forces in American music.
