EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white group portrait, titled "Portrait of Edwin A. Finckel, George Handy, Johnny Richards, Eddie Sauter, Ralph Burns, and Neal Hefti," 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 intriguing gathering of six influential figures from the golden age of jazz, each dressed in fashionable attire of the 1940s. From left to right, we find composer George Joseph Hendleman Handy, known for his iconic "Saint Louis Blues," wearing a dapper suit and fedora. Next to him is pianist and arranger Eddie Sauter, dressed in a casual sweater and slacks. Neal Hefti, another composer and arranger, is seen wearing a stylish jacket and tie. Johnny Richards, a bandleader and arranger, is shown wearing a checkered shirt and suspenders, adding a playful touch to the image. Edwin A. Finckel, a jazz musician and bandleader, is the central figure, dressed in a smart suit and hat. The enigmatic figure in the background is Ralph Burns, a prolific arranger and composer, dressed in a casual shirt and tie. This photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the jazz music industry during the 1940s. It captures the essence of the era, with its unique blend of fashion, music, and personality. The image has been preserved in the Library of Congress, adding to the historical significance of this remarkable group of jazz luminaries.
