== Biography ==
=== Early years ===
Jean Audrey Caliste was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, on January 26, 1943. After graduating from high school, she began singing at Laura’s Place, her cousin’s bar, and caught the attention of many different bands who were willing to accompany her. In 1965, she recorded a demo of a cover version of Jackie Wilson’s song “Stop Doggin’ Me Around.” Her demo attracted record producer Huey Meaux, who signed her to a recording contract at the Jet Star/Tribe record labels. Shortly thereafter, she adopted the professional name of “Jean Knight,” because she felt that her surname Caliste was too hard to pronounce. Knight recorded four singles, making a name for herself locally, but was not able to attract any national attention. By the late 1960s, it was obvious that Knight’s career was not living up to her high expectations, so she went to work as a baker in the cafeteria of St. Mary’s Dominican College in New Orleans.
