Billy Butterfield

Billy Butterfield (born January 14, 1917 in Middleton, Ohio; died March 18, 1988) was a jazz trumpeter, flugelhornist and cornetist.

He studied cornet with Frank Simons, but later switched to studying medicine. He did not give up on music and quit medicine after finding success as a trumpeter. He gained attention working with Bob Crosby and later worked with Artie Shaw. He led his own, unsuccessful, band between 1945 and 1947; by the 1970s he had largely retired.
