EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the essence of Eddie Heywood, a renowned jazz pianist and bandleader, during a performance at Downbeat, a popular nightclub located on Manhattan Island, New York City, in the late 1940s. The image, taken by the esteemed photographer William Paul Gottlieb, showcases Heywood in his element, surrounded by his fellow musicians, lost in the joy and excitement of their music. The photograph is a testament to the golden age of jazz and the vibrant nightlife scene that thrived in New York City during this era. The image, which was published in Downbeat magazine, is a valuable piece of American cultural heritage, capturing the essence of a time when jazz music reigned supreme and provided a source of enjoyment and escape for people of all backgrounds. The photograph, taken as a film negative, is now part of the extensive collection at the Library of Congress, a fitting tribute to the legacy of both Eddie Heywood and the rich musical history of the United States.
