Pee Wee King was born Julius Frank Anthony Kuczynski in 1914 and lived until 2000. He was Polish-American from Milwaukee Wisconsin and he is best known as the co-writer of the Tennessee Waltz. His co-writer on that tune was Redd Steward. They wrote the tune in 1946 when King led the Golden West Cowboys, and then recorded it in 1948. Here’s the original recording:
