EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white group portrait, titled "Portrait of Ralph Burns, Edwin A. Finckel, George Handy, Neal Hefti, Johnny Richards, and Eddie Sauter," was captured by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb in March 1947 at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. The image showcases an assemblage of six influential figures in the jazz world during the 1940s, a period often referred to as the Golden Age of Jazz. From left to right, we find composer and arranger Eddie Sauter, bandleader and arranger Ralph Burns, pianist and composer George Joseph Hendleman Handy, composer and arranger Neal Hefti, composer and arranger Edwin A. Finckel, and arranger and composer Johnny Richards. Their impeccable attire, with sharp suits and crisp dress shirts, adds to the sophisticated ambiance of the photograph. This image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the jazz scene during the 1940s, a time when music was a powerful force that brought people together and transcended racial and social boundaries. The group's collective influence on the jazz industry is evident in their individual accomplishments, which span across various genres and mediums. The photograph, shot in black and white on film negative, has been preserved in the Library of Congress, a fitting home for such an important piece of American history. It serves as a reminder of the enduring impact of jazz music on our society and the artists who shaped its course.
