Tammi Terrell
R&B Singer
Motown singer who performed the hits "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" and "You're All I Need to Get By," among others.
She signed her first music contract with James Brown at the age of seventeen.
She tragically died of a brain tumor at age 24, which sent Marvin Gaye, her long-time collaborator, into a downward spiral.
She was engaged to Dr. Ernest Garrett in 1970.
Terrell's song "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" was covered by Diana Ross, going on to be one of Ross's biggest hits.
