At the invitation of Sam Stephenson, the author of The Jazz Loft Project book and Director of the The Jazz Loft Project, one of my photos is now on The Jazz Loft Project Blog at:
http://www.jazzloftproject.org/blog/uncategorized/whitney-ballietts-studio
This is the studio of my late brother-in-law, the New Yorker magazine writer Whitney Balliett, who wrote prolifically about jazz for the magazine. During the 60's and 70's, Whitney poured out a piece for the magazine at the rate of about one every other issue. Many of those pieces were written in this modest and quite small atelier on NYC's Upper East Side. My sister-in-law still lives in this apartment and maintains Whitney's office pretty much as it was when he was alive. Given that the Project documents a large period in the life and work of a great photographer and documentarian, W. Eugene Smith, I am, as a rank amateur, honored to say the least at having one of my modest images on the Project's blog.
