==Early life==
Mitchell was born on 26 August 1917 in Clearfield, Pennsylvania, the eldest of twelve children. His parents were Sicilian immigrants who changed the family name to Mitchell a year after his birth.〔 Mitchell began playing the saxophone at age five and soon added the clarinet. His first teacher was his father, who had encouraged his interest in music. Although a painter and decorator by trade, his father was a skilled musician and the leader of the Clearfield town band.〔〔Smith, Norman E. (1986). "Anthony A. Mitchell", ''March Music Notes'', pp. 297-298. Lake Charles, LA: Program Notes Press〕 In 1936 the nineteen-year-old Mitchell enlisted in the US Navy and moved to Washington D.C. to study at the newly established Navy School of Music. After graduating with honors two years later, he was accepted into the US Navy Band as a clarinetist. In 1945 he became the clarinet soloist for the band,〔''Tri-City Herald'' (May 3, 1964). ("Clarinetist to Direct Navy Band" ). Retrieved July 27, 2011.〕 and the following year graduated from The Catholic University of America with a Bachelor of Music degree.
