IN LATE 2002, NORAH JONES WAS RIDING A WAVE of popularity spawned from her mega hit debut album Come Away With Me. A few months later, she would take home GRAMMY¨ Awards for Album of the Year, Record of the Year, Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, Best Pop Vocal Album, Song of the Year, and the coveted Best New Artist title. At the time of the photo shoot, she was in Florida, rehearsing for upcoming television appearances and her continuing "Come Away with Me Tour," which began May 29, 2002 and wouldn't wrap until Feb. 10, 2004. Norah's music has evolved and grown since her award-winning album, taking her into territories that would earn her three nods for Best Country Collaboration with Vocals (two with Willie Nelson and one with Dolly Parton) and a GRAMMY¨ for Best Contemporary Jazz Album (River: The Joni Letters). But that's not to say she still isn't making her mark in the pop world, as she's since taken home five more GRAMMY¨ Awards in the genre where she has reigned supreme from the moment she stepped out of the gate.
