Although there is much debate about why New York is called the Big Apple, it appears it was first used in print by John Fitzgerald, an early feature writer for the Morning Telegraph newspaper back in the 1930´s. Others say it was the jazz scene in the early 1930´s and 40´s that brought the name about. On West 135th Street and Seventh Avenue in Harlem, there was a popular night club named "Big Apple" as well as a jitterbug type of dance group that swept across the south and into Harlem.
