==Early life and education==
Gardot was born in New Jersey, and was largely brought up by her grandparents. Her grandmother was a Polish immigrant, and her mother, a photographer, worked and traveled frequently. They moved around often and as a consequence had very few possessions, often living out of suitcases. Because of Gardot’s career, she does not stay in one place for long and she finds herself living out of three suitcases, as she did when she was a child.
Gardot studied fashion at the Community College of Philadelphia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Unchained Melody )〕
