SUMMARY:Institute of African American Affairs and Center for Black Visual Culture Presents: Billie Holiday: An Evening with Lady Day in Photos and Song
DESCRIPTION:Born April 7\, 1915\, Billie Holiday is considered one of the greatest American jazz singers of all time. Author Grayson Dantzic shares behind-the scenes anecdotes and images from his 18-year journey making his book Jerry Dantzic:Billie Holiday at Sugar Hill. Through the rediscovering of his late father Jerry Dantzic’s unseen photographs of Billie Holiday taken in 1957\, the previously known narrative changes resulting in a rediscovering of her humanity. Grayson Dantzic will be in conversation with jazz recording artist\, composer and activist Candice Hoyes as they discuss the life and legacy of the amazing and iconic Lady Day. Candice Hoyes will perform and be accompanied by pianist Jonathan Thomas. Moderated by Daniel Dawson\, NYU Gallatin professor and member of Kamoinge\, a pioneering collective of African American photographers founded in 1963.

Hoyes began formal vocal study as an undergraduate at Harvard University\, soon gracing the international stages of Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center as an award-winning classical soloist.  In 2015\, she toured and recorded with the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra under artistic director Wynton Marsalis\, before releasing her own critically-acclaimed album debut\, On A Turquoise Cloud.  Hoyes has performed with Marsalis\, Ray Angry of The Roots\, Philip Glass\, Deepak Chopra\, and Wycliffe Gordon. In 2017\, Hoyes delivered a TED Talk performance and created and led a new performance lecture series for Jazz at Lincoln Center and City University of New York. She is recording her second album\, due in 2019. \n  \n  \n\nWith his musical roots firmly planted in his gospel upbringing\, jazz pianist Jonathan Thomas brings a soulful and meaningful intent to every note he plays. Thomas earned a BFA on a full scholarship at The New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music in 2015 and began his study at The Juilliard School in 2017 for a Masters in Music. He has been student to pianists Aaron Goldberg\, Dan Nimmer\, Aaron Parks\, and Taylor Eigsti. In 2012 he was awarded The ASCAP foundation Herb Alpert Young Jazz Composer Award.  Deemed stunningly good by the New York Times\, Thomas has played in jazz festivals around the world\, opened for Benny Golson\, and has performed with Charles Toliver\, Bruce Williams\, Richie Goods\, Jazzmeia Horn\, and the Cleveland Jazz Orchestra\, among many others. He can be found at his bi-weekly residency at Smalls Jazz Club which he has hosted since 2015. \n  \n  \n  \n\nA multi-talented artist\, Daniel Dawson has worked as a photographer\, filmmaker\, curator\, arts administrator\, consultant and scholar. He has served as Curator of Photography\, Film and Video at the Studio Museum in Harlem (NYC)\, Director of Special Projects at the Caribbean Cultural Center (NYC)\,  Program Manager at the American Museum of Natural History (NYC)  and Curatorial Consultant and Director of Education at the Museum for African Art (NYC).  As a photographer\, he has shown in over 35 exhibitions.
