Who could have known that in 2002 when Maryann and I began to research and write LITTLE PIANO GIRL that Mary Lou Williams’ story would be published 100 years after her birth? Because of this, the Lincoln Center, the Kennedy Center, the American Jazz Museum and the Smithsonian will all be hosting special events in her honor.

Check out these celebrations. If you can’t be there in person, pick up one of her CD’s and move to the groove or come to see me on Saturday, January 23rd at 2PM at the American Jazz Museum. You’ll get a warm welcome from everyone there.
