- Michael Joseph O'Sullivan (November 4, 1906 – October 13, 1971) was an American jazz pianist. Sullivan was the ninth child of Irish immigrant parents. He studied classical piano for 12 years and at age 17, he began to play popular music in silent-movie theaters, on radio stations, and then with the dance orchestras, where he was exposed to jazz. He graduated from the Chicago Conservatory and was an important contributor to the Chicago jazz scene of the 1920s. Sullivan's recording career began towards the end of 1927, when he joined McKenzie and Condon's Chicagoans. Other musicians in his circle included Jimmy McPartland, Frank Teschemacher, Bud Freeman, Jim Lanigan and Gene Krupa. In 1933, he joined Bing Crosby as his accompanist, recording and making many radio broadcasts. He contracted tuberculosis in 1936, and while he was convalescing at a sanitarium in Monrovia, California in 1937, Crosby organized and appeared in a five-hour benefit for him at the Pan-Pacific Auditorium in Los Angeles on May 23, 1937 in front of an audience of six thousand. The show was broadcast over two different radio stations, with fourteen bands attending (including those led by Woody Herman, Ray Noble, Jimmy Dorsey, Jimmy Grier, Louis Prima, Harry Owens, and Victor Young) and other performers included Connie Boswell, Johnny Mercer, Red Norvo, and Ella Logan. Approximately $3,000 was raised for Sullivan. After suffering for two years with tuberculosis, he briefly re-joined Bing Crosby in 1938 and the Bob Crosby Orchestra in 1939. In 1940, when leading Joe Sullivan's Cafe Society Orchestra, he had a minor hit with "I've Got a Crush on You". By the 1950s, Sullivan was largely forgotten, playing solo in San Francisco. Marital difficulties and excessive drinking caused Sullivan to become increasingly unreliable and unable to keep a steady job, either as band member or soloist. In 1963, Sullivan met up with old colleagues Jack and Charlie Teagarden plus Pee Wee Russell when they performed at the Monterey Jazz Festival. The British poet (and jazz pianist) Roy Fisher celebrated Sullivan's playing with a poem, "The Thing About Joe Sullivan", regarded by some critics as one of the best poems about jazz. Fisher also used that title for a book of his selected poems, because (he said) he felt Sullivan was a neglected master who deserved to have his name on the cover of a book. Joe Sullivan died in San Francisco in October 1971, at the age of 64. (en)

- Joe Sullivan, pseudonimo di Michael Joseph O'Sullivan (Chicago, 4 novembre 1906 – San Francisco, 13 ottobre 1971), è stato un pianista e compositore statunitense. Agli esordi fece parte del gruppo Critical en Critical Ops. Joe Sullivan è stato un pianista della scuola jazz di Chicago, attivo principalmente negli anni '20/30. Dotato di una tecnica micidiale soprattutto per quanto riguardava la mano sinistra, è passato pressoché inosservato nella sua epoca, per poi essere riscoperto dai pianisti dei decenni successivi che hanno cominciato ad inserire nel loro repertorio, alcuni suoi brani. Con uno stile a metà tra il Vaudeville e il Ragtime, Sullivan ha fatto da spartiacque tra le generazioni di pianisti jazz di colore come Art Tatum e Oscar Peterson e quelle successive di pianisti bianchi pur se con le dovute differenze stilistiche. Nono figlio di genitori immigrati irlandesi, si dedica allo studio del pianoforte classico sin dall'età di 12 anni ed a 17 anni già suona in un club. Dopo essersi diplomato in pianoforte presso il Conservatorio di Chicago Sullivan iniziò la sua carriera alla fine del 1927, unendosi alla band di e chiamata Chicagoans. Il complesso includeva altri musicisti come , , Bud Freeman, e Gene Krupa. Nel 1933, entrò a far parte del gruppo di Bing Crosby come suo accompagnatore. Dopo essersi ammalato per due anni di tubercolosi, riprese l'attività brevemente nel 1938 e nel 1939 prima con l'orchestra di Bing Crosby e poi con quella di Bob Crosby. Purtroppo, le difficoltà coniugali e il bere eccessivo fecero diventare Sullivan sempre più inaffidabile e incapace di continuare a lavorare nel mondo della musica, sia come membro di un gruppo che come solista.
