On some of her songs, it is thought that the accompanying pianist is Roosevelt Sykes. It is also thought that she was in a relationship with bluesman Big Joe Williams. ~ Joslyn Layne, All Music Guide</blockquote> I'd never heard of Bessie Mae before you asked. We both learned something. This, I think, is the answer to your question from answers.com:

Great stuff, I just downloaded a collection of her stuff. My grandmother will especially appreciate this. Looking around, there was also a Bessie Mae Smith. Some sites imply they are the same Bessie Smith, but listening to songs attributed to Bessie Mae I don't think this is correct. Do you know anything about this singer?
