BILL HOLMAN NEA Jazz Master (2010) Interviewee: Bill Holman (May 21, 1927 - ) Interviewer: Anthony Brown with recording engineer Ken Kimery Date: February 18-19, 2010 Repository: Archives Center, National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution Description: Transcript, 84 pp. Brown: Today is Thursday, February 18th, 2010, and this is the Smithsonian Institution National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Masters Oral History Program interview with Bill Holman in his house in Los Angeles, California. Good afternoon, Bill, accompanied by his wife, Nancy. This interview is conducted by Anthony Brown with Ken Kimery. Bill, if we could start with you stating your full name, your birth date, and where you were born. Holman: My full name is Willis Leonard Holman. I was born in Olive, California, May 21st, 1927. Brown: Where exactly is Olive, California? Holman: Strange you should ask [laughs]. Now it‟s a part of Orange, California. You may not know where Orange is either. Orange is near Santa Ana, which is the county seat of Orange County, California. I don‟t know if Olive was a part of Orange at the time, or whether Orange has just grown up around it, or what. But it‟s located in the city of Orange, although I think it‟s a separate municipality. Anyway, it was a really small town. I always say there was a couple of orange-packing houses and a railroad spur. Probably more than that, but not a whole lot.

After several issues, he welcomed contributions from the staff, and Don Gold and I began. to contribute regularly. After Jack left, I inherited Crater's column and wrote it, with occasional contributions from Don and Jack Tynan, until I found that the well was running dry. Don and I wrote it some more and then Crater sort of passed from the scene, much like last year's favorite soloist.

  • Herb Alpert Program Bio – Approved by Herb Alpert
    Herb Biography Alpert Biography March 11, 2009 Herb Alpert Program Bio – Approved by Herb Alpert Musician. Artist. Producer. Composer. Music executive. To multitudes of music fans, Herb Alpert is the trumpet-playing icon whose name instantly brings to mind memorable songs that he recorded either as the leader of the legendary Tijuana Brass or as a solo artist yielding 5 #1 hits, 8 Grammy awards, 14 Platinum and 15 Gold albums – totaling 72 million albums sold worldwide. To a global circle of musicians Alpert's distinct, relaxed instrumental sound makes him a favorite. Trumpet players are especially aware of his unique musical expression . “You hear 3 notes and you know it’s Herb Alpert” said Miles Davis. “He gets right to the point of what he’s playing,” remarked Wynton Marsalis, “very melodic and nothing extraneous.” To the entire music business A&M Records was the most successful independent record label in the world founded by Herb and his partner Jerry Moss. In 1990 they sold the company as a tide of corporate takeovers swept the industry. A lover of jazz since childhood Alpert has added his unique style and sound to many of his solo jazz albums over the years. He has worked with such notable musicians as Hugh Masekela, Shorty Rogers and Pete Jolly and has played with the legendary Louis Armstrong. Alpert has also produced and played with Gato Barbieri and the great Stan Getz. All of these high profile achievements only begin to define the generous extent of Alpert’s creative spirit. The litany of Alpert’s accomplishments also include: Abstract expressionist artist of respect and critical renown: his canvases and sculptures are praised for defining a flowing, visual vocabulary of their own.
