Episode 8
I talk with best selling biographer Larry Tye. His latest effort is The Jazzmen, How Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, and Count Basie Transformed America. And—because jazz reminds me of poetry--our resident poet and poetry expert Maryam Barrie will join us after we hear from Larry Tye. She and I will share poems about jazz and the Black experience on Poetry Sustains.
