EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken by Brian Foskett in 1962, we are transported to North London where the legendary Sammy Davis Jr is participating in a Pro-Am Golf event. The image captures not only the iconic entertainer but also showcases British personalities Lionel Blair and Henry Cooper in the background. Sammy Davis Jr, known for his extraordinary talent as a singer, dancer, and actor, effortlessly exudes charm and charisma on the golf course. His presence alone adds an air of excitement to this charity golf match that was held to support a noble cause. Framed against the picturesque backdrop of London's countryside, Sammy tees off with confidence and style. With his signature swing and impeccable form, he demonstrates that his talents extend far beyond music and entertainment. This photograph perfectly encapsulates the fusion of American jazz culture with British sportsmanship during the swinging sixties. It serves as a testament to Sammy Davis Jr's versatility as an artist who effortlessly transcended boundaries across countries and professions. Preserved within the National Jazz Archive, this snapshot immortalizes not just an individual but also represents an era when music united people from different walks of life. Brian Foskett's skillful composition allows us to glimpse into a moment frozen in time - one that celebrates both athletic prowess and cultural exchange between two nations.
