Jack Maurice Millman, born on November 21, 1930, in Detroit, was an American jazz trumpeter and flugelhorn player. He began his professional career in the early 1950s, contributing to recordings with the Stan Kenton Orchestra, including "Mambo Rhapsody" (1952). His debut EP, Jazz Studio 4, was released in 1955 on Decca Records, featuring arrangements by notable figures such as Don Friedman and Jimmy Giuffre.
