The Jackson family is an American family of musicians and entertainers from Gary, Indiana.
Many of the children of Joe and Katherine Jackson were successful musicians, notably the brothers who formed the Motown band the Jackson 5 (later known as the Jacksons). Several of the siblings also had successful solo careers, notably Michael and Janet. Joe worked as their manager.
The Jackson family, both as a musical group and as solo artists, has achieved success in the field of popular music since the late 1960s and onward.
