"On behalf of the Glenn Miller Birthplace Society, I would like to welcome you to our website. We hope you will enjoy learning about our society and about Glenn Miller, a pioneer in music during the Big Band era. After disappearing in 1944, his music and life have continued to be of interest to people around the world. We are definitely In The Mood for Glenn Miller and we hope you will be also."
