Dizzie Gillespie, Glen Miller, Woody Herman, Benny Goodman, Ella Fitzgerald, Milt Hinton, Fats Waller, John Coltrane and Miles Davis all hail from Queens. More recently, rap artists Marley Marl, Run DMC, LL Cool J, Mc Shan, Chuck D, Salt N Pepa, Onyx, 50 Cent, Nick Minaj and many others emerged from Queens. And let’s not forget that Harry Houdini is buried in Queens.
Queens is also home to the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge teaming with over 300 species of birds, as well as reptiles, small mammals, amphibians and over 50 species of butterflies. Don’t miss the horseshoe crabs making their way onshore in early Spring. If nature’s not your thing, there’s MOMA’s branch PS1, with groundbreaking exhibits and events.

Queens is also famous for being the birthplace of religious freedom in the United States.

The protesters were harshly punished, but did succeed in bringing the issue to light, and paving the way towards religious freedom in America.
