  • Norwood 'Pony' Poindexter (New Orleans, 8 februari 1926 - Oakland, Californië, 14 april 1988) was een Amerikaanse jazzsaxofonist (sopraansaxofoon, altsaxofoon en tenorsaxofoon). Ook speelde hij klarinet en zong hij. Hij speelde bop. Zijn spel was sterk beïnvloed door de blues en verraad invloeden van Charlie Parker en Johnny Hodges. Hij was een van de eerste be bop-saxofonisten die sopraansaxofoon begon te spelen. In 1985 publiceerde hij een autobiografie, 'Pony Express'. Toen hij in 1988 overleed, was hij vrijwel vergeten. (nl)
