Deep, pithy thoughts about Deborah L. Martin family, the holidays, who (and what) we have lost, and what we Editor in Chief have gained. As I thought about where to begin, and maybe more importantly where to end, the task of writing this note seemed a bit, Creative Team Glyph.NYC well, challenging. And then I read a story about a vote to name the Associate Editor Daniel Metz newest arrival at the National Zoo in Washington D.C., and suddenly I Fashion Editor Annaël Assouline realized that I don’t want to read—let alone write—another postmortem Food Editor Fernanda Mueller of this “annus horribilis.” I’m ready for 2021. I’m ready to leave behind the sorrow and the stress, the loss and the anxiety, and embrace joy. Fitness Editor Lala Duncan And what could be more joyful than a tiny, baby panda? Music Editor Alice Teeple Xiao Qi Ji was born in August of this year to mother Mei Xiang Editor at Large Mike Hammer and father Tian Tian. So many people tuned into the National Zoo’s Multimedia Director Andrew Matusik “PandaCam” that their servers shut down temporarily. That’s how much Contributing Family & Lifestyle Editor Jessica Rovira we needed good news this year. While record numbers of people in Pet Editor Sheila Laughery this country voted in our presidential election, another election was going on: 135,000 people voted on the little nugget’s name, which is Mandarin Chinese for “Little Miracle.” At this point, that’s the only kind of election news I want to hear. CONTRIBUTORS TECHNOLOGY We needed a little miracle this year, and we got one, in the form of a Noel Y. Calingasan Bradley Kirkland/ small, black and white ball of fluff, and a large, unwieldy, drama-filled David Cotteblanche Stone Soup Michael Fiedler Romeo Marra/Entirely national election. No matter where you fall on the political spectrum, Noemi Florea Digital the idea that over 160 million Americans successfully cast a ballot in a Nicole Haddad Ryan Liu presidential election should cheer you. As Representative John Lewis Andrew Matusik so eloquently put it, “Democracy is not a state. It is an act, and each Eric Piasecki/OTTO Antoine Verglas generation must do its part…” This year, during a global pandemic that has sickened over 14 million Americans at this writing, approximately 66% of eligible voters did their part, and percentagewise that is the highest voter turnout since 1900. We have a long way to go, but we’ve come a long way, baby. And so here we are, entering a holiday season like no other, unsure BUSINESS of what lies ahead and with many of us wondering how to pay rent, Grace A. Capobianco how to feed our children, or even whether it is safe to see our families. Chief Executive Officer/Publisher But in spite of everything we have been through, the little miracles are all around us. Music, poetry, art—all of these things continue to Executive Vice President John ‘Cap’ Capobianco delight, even through the fog of uncertainty.

On September 7, 2020 at 4:22 am, my brother and I were by our mother’s side as she took her last breath. A year of pain, grief, loss, and an emotional roller coaster of fear, had come to its peak. Nothing that 2020 could throw at me would affect me this greatly. We each handle grief differently, and I poured myself back into my work. Getting lost in what I love to do is a blessing. I love Downtown, not only the community but working with our clients, board members, core team, and our editor in chief Deb Martin. We scrape the surface, and then dig deeper to create the beautiful, heartfelt pages of this magazine. You see we get to do what we love, tell stories about the people, places, and culture that only exists right here in our New York. Putting a magazine together is like peeling an onion, one layer at a time. You start with the whole, then you must make each page individually come to life. We are Creators, this is what we do each and every day. Talking with and meeting the Creators featured in this issue was just what I needed, a spiritual journey into their lives to take me away from my pain. We are all Creators in some way whether you create a dish, a painting, a song, a building, or use words to tell someone else’s story. Getting to meet our cover talent Jon Batiste was an experience I will never forget. He made me feel quiet and still, which are two words that anyone who knows me would never choose to describe me. He lives in his rhythm, everything he does is a rhythm, the way he walks, talks, and New York's leading hospital thinks, you can get inspired by just being in his presence.

  • Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage
    Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Aaron Joseph Johnson All rights reserved ABSTRACT Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson This dissertation is a study of jazz on American radio. The dissertation's meta-subjects are mediation, classification, and patronage in the presentation of music via distribution channels capable of reaching widespread audiences. The dissertation also addresses questions of race in the representation of jazz on radio. A central claim of the dissertation is that a given direction in jazz radio programming reflects the ideological, aesthetic, and political imperatives of a given broadcasting entity. I further argue that this ideological deployment of jazz can appear as conservative or progressive programming philosophies, and that these tendencies reflect discursive struggles over the identity of jazz. The first chapter, "Jazz on Noncommercial Radio," describes in some detail the current (circa 2013) taxonomy of American jazz radio. The remaining chapters are case studies of different aspects of jazz radio in the United States. Chapter 2, "Jazz is on the Left End of the Dial," presents considerable detail to the way the music is positioned on specific noncommercial stations. Chapter 3, "Duke Ellington and Radio," uses Ellington's multifaceted radio career (1925-1953) as radio bandleader, radio celebrity, and celebrity DJ to examine the medium's shifting relationship with jazz and black American creative ambition.

  • (LACMA) Hosted Its Ninth Annual Art+Film Gala on Saturday, November 2, 2019, Honoring Artist Betye Saar and Filmmaker Alfonso Cuarón
    (Los Angeles, November 3, 2019)—The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) hosted its ninth annual Art+Film Gala on Saturday, November 2, 2019, honoring artist Betye Saar and filmmaker Alfonso Cuarón. Co-chaired by LACMA trustee Eva Chow and actor Leonardo DiCaprio, the evening brought together more than 800 distinguished guests from the art, film, fashion, and entertainment industries, among others. This year’s gala raised more than $4.6 million, with proceeds supporting LACMA’s film initiatives and future exhibitions, acquisitions, and programming. The 2019 Art+Film Gala was made possible through Gucci’s longstanding and generous partnership. Additional support for the gala was provided by Audi. Eva Chow, co-chair of the Art+Film Gala, said, “I’m so happy that we have outdone ourselves again with the most successful Art+Film Gala yet. It was such a joy to celebrate Betye Saar and Alfonso Cuarón’s incredible creativity and passion, while supporting LACMA’s art and film initiatives. I couldn’t be more grateful to Alessandro Michele, Marco Bizzarri, and everyone at Gucci—our invaluable partner since the first Art+Film Gala—and to Anderson .Paak and The Free Nationals for making this evening one to remember.” “I’m deeply grateful to our returning co-chairs Eva Chow and Leonardo DiCaprio for helping us set another Art+Film Gala record,” said Michael Govan, LACMA CEO and Wallis Annenberg Director. “We honored two incredibly powerful artistic voices this year. Betye Saar has helped define the genre of Assemblage art for nearly seven decades, and recognition of her as one of the most important and influential artists working today is long overdue.
