Johnny Mince (born John Henry Muenzenberger; July 8, 1912 – December 23, 1994)[1] was an American swing jazz clarinetist.
Mince played with Joe Haymes from 1929 to 1934,[2] and recorded with Red Norvo and Glenn Miller in 1935.
After an extended stint in the U.S. military (1941–45), Mince worked as a studio musician for several decades.
Following this he worked with the New Paul Whiteman Orchestra (1976), Yank Lawson, Bob Haggart, and the World's Greatest Jazz Band.
He continued to play at jazz revival festivals until his retirement due to ill health.
