Real name: Theodore Malcolm Nash

Effective period / Period of releases: 1956 - 1964

American swing reedman (clarinet, sax, flute ...), born October 31, 1922, in Somerville, Massachusetts (USA), died May 12, 2011, in Carmel, California (USA); he is probably best known for his association with Les Brown.
He was active from the 1940s to the 1980s.
He must NOT be confused with his nephew, Ted Nash (born in 1959), who is also a jazz saxophone player (but more hard bop / post bop and avant-garde than swing).
Ted Nash's brother is trombonist Dick Nash, father of the younger Ted Nash.
