Vincent Anthony Guaraldi Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018
Vincent Anthony "Vince" Guaraldi (born Vincent Anthony Dellaglio; July 17, 1928 – February 6, 1976) was an American jazz musician and pianist noted for his innovative compositions and arrangements and for composing music for animated adaptations of the Peanuts comic strip. Guaraldi was born in San Francisco, California's North Beach area, a place that became very important to his blossoming musical career. Vince’s last name changed to Guaraldi after his mother Carmella Guaraldi (née Marcellino) divorced his biological father (whose last name was Dellaglio) and Vince was adopted by his stepfather, Tony Guaraldi. He was the nephew of musician, singer, and whistler Muzzy Marcellino. Vince graduated from Lincoln High School, attended San Francisco State University, and served as an Army cook in the Korean War.

1 | He had two children: David Anthony Guaraldi (B. August 11, 1955) and Dia Lisa Guaraldi (B. February 16, 1960). |
2 | In the first couple of decades that the Peanuts specials aired, the producers were swamped with requests for Vince Guaraldi's music. |
3 | In 1956 he was the pianist on the Columbia Records demonstration recordings of singer Johnny Mathis. |
4 | Although It's Arbor Day, Charlie Brown (1976) was the last Peanuts special he scored before his death, all of the Peanuts specials, movies, and TV series that followed also have scores based on his Peanuts themes, particularly the famous composition "Linus and Lucy." |
5 | In 1963, Lee Mendelson had just agreed to produce the first Peanuts special when he was driving through San Francisco. Guaraldi's tune "Cast Your Fate to the Wind" came on the radio, and Mendelson knew he'd found the composer for the special. He found out that Guaraldi was a San Francisco native, tracked him down, and tapped him to composed the music. |
