The previous Harlem Speaks honoree was filmmaker Jean Bach, who, on June 2, gave a fascinating talk about her 60 year career. Of course, much of it focused on the genesis and execution of her film A Great In Harlem, which celebrates the iconic 1958 Esquire photograph taken by Art Kane. Mrs. Bach was personal friends with many of the musicians in the photo. She also recounted in great and fascinating detail her close associations with Duke Ellington, Miles Davis and many other jazz greats. There was also a segment devoted to her role as producer of the Arlene Francis radio show for 25 years, where she also appeared as occasional host. A tireless proselytizer for jazz, Mrs. Bach has been a potent force both behind and in front of the scene for decades, and continues to work her magic. A new edition of A Great Day In Harlem is due out soon. www.a-great-day-in-harlem.com.
