Mindy Carson (born July 16, 1927), an American traditional pop vocalist, was heard often on radio during the 1940s and 1950s. Carson was born in New York City and grew up in the Westchester section of the Bronx, graduating from James Monroe High School. After graduation, she took a position as typist and stenographer, and she worked at a candy company. 　　1946 Cool hit Rumors Are Flying. She earned both a radio show (through CBS) and a television show (NBC) in 1949, the latter of which ran for two years. Carson recorded for RCA during the same time, but failed to hit the charts with any of her work.A change of venue to Columbia in 1952 paid immediate dividends; she was paired with Guy Mitchell for the hit (Cause I Love You) Thats A-Why, and the pair later recorded several other duets, including another hit, Tell Us Where the Good Times Are. Her first solo hit, a sweet 1955 ballad named Wake the Town and Tell the People, was the biggest of her career and nearly reached the Top Ten. Two years later she covered Ivory Joe Hunters Since I Met You Baby for another hit, and a Columbia LP named Baby, Baby, Baby followed one year later. She never reached the charts again, and slowly faded from view amidst the rise of a younger generation of pop music. Carson also appeared on Broadway with the 1958 show The Body Beautiful.
