EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, captured by renowned jazz photographer William Paul Gottlieb in October 1947, showcases a lively moment at the Famous Door jazz club on Manhattan's 52nd Street in New York City. The image features an intriguing quartet of musicians, each bringing their unique energy to the scene. At the center, with a focused expression and intense gaze, is Mike Bryan, a Caucasian guitarist whose nimble fingers gracefully pluck the strings. To his left, Sanford Gold, an African American bassist with a warm smile, holds his double bass in a confident pose. Cozy Cole, an African American drummer with a mischievous grin, sits to the right, poised behind his drum kit. Jack Lesberg, another African American musician, adds depth to the image as he leans in, engaged in conversation with his bandmates. The Famous Door was a significant venue during the Golden Age of Jazz, attracting both local and international talent. This photograph encapsulates the vibrant cultural exchange that took place within its walls, as well as the camaraderie and creativity that defined the jazz scene of the 1940s. The image is a testament to the enduring power of music to bring people together, transcending boundaries of race, ethnicity, and background.
