Suzanne Cloud (born September 7, 1951) is an American jazz singer and the founding executive director of Jazz Bridge, an award-winning organization incorporated in 2005 with friend and fellow jazz singer Wendy Simon to help local jazz and blues musicians in crisis. Cloud was named a Creative Connector by the Philadelphia Leadership Council in 2012 and was featured by WHYY for her work for the organization. Cloud is the editor of The Real Philadelphia Book, 2nd edition (being published by Temple University Press, Fall 2018), featuring over 300 original jazz and blues compositions by Philadelphia-area musicians, which was the dream of musician David Dzubinski of creating a compendium of music by regional artists. This idea led, in 2016, to a grant awarded by The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage to present the Philadelphia Real Book Concerts: New Music in Jazz and Blues, which featured saxophonist Jimmy Heath, Duane Eubanks, Robin Eubanks, Pat Martino, Uri Caine, Christian McBride, Monnette Sudler, Odean Pope, and Dave Burrell. This series of concerts helped stimulate a rebirth of activity in the city's jazz community and expanded the purpose of the Jazz Bridge Neighborhood Concerts, established in Collingswood, NJ, by Cloud in 2004. Other special projects that Cloud initated was Last Call at the Downbeat, a musical play about Dizzy Gillespie's early years in Philly written and directed by Suzanne Cloud for the Philadelphia International Festival of the Arts (PIFA) in 2014 and Vision Song: Our Hearts, Our Future, Our Voices for PIFA 2016 with a new composition by saxophonist Bobby Zankel and his Warriors of the Wonderful Sound jazz orchestra with the students of Grover Washington Jr. Middle School, which was performed at the Kimmel Center.
