A.k.a. James T. Work
Jimmy Work (born 1924, Akron, Ohio) was an American country musician best known for the country standard "Making Believe".Work was born in Ohio but moved to Dukedom, Tennessee with his family at age two. He picked up guitar at age seven, and learned fiddle and songwriting by his early teens.Later in the 1950s his fortunes in music declined, and he began working in real estate. He cut a few singles in 1959 for All Records, then left performance entirely to become a millwright back in Dukedom. He continued to write songs, however, working for Acuff-Rose.
