    BIG BAND JUMP NEWSLETTER VOLUME XXIX BIG BAND JUMP NEWSLETTER NOVEMBER-DECEMBER 1993 HENRY MANCINI INTERVIEW THE BACKGROUND The promotion people put us in touch with Henry Mancini as part of the advertising campaign for a concert tour he was making at the time. He talked on a “live” local radio program with Don Kennedy. Mancini and Kennedy grew up within twelve miles of each other in the steel-making area of Western Pennsylvania, just thirty miles from Pittsburgh, although separated in time by half a generation. Mancini was a contemporary of Kennedy’s older musician brothers, so there were some common memories tied with the stories of his early years playing in steel-town beer joints. THE SCENE Unlike some celebrities of Henry Mancini’s stature, the Mancini at work. interview wasn’t difficult to arrange. He is so approach­ able and unaffected by his success, however, that he has BBJ: What kind of musical experience did you have a tendency to be off-hand with his answers, resulting in there? an interview with shorter answers and in some instances less depth than most musical celebrities. Mancini’s HM: Every kind! (Laughs) I started playing flute when answer to a couple of questions was something such as I was a kid, when my Dad gave one to me. He was a flute “Oh, sure.” Some of those one and two word answers player, too. That was at the age of eight, and then I were edited out in places where Kennedy’s persistence started playing piano about eleven and then took up eventually resulted in a longer, more meaningful answer, arranging on my own at about fourteen.

    AAND NOW LET'S BUILD A BETTER WORLD@: THE STORY OF THE ASSOCIATION FOR THE HELP OF RETARDED CHILDREN, NEW YORK CITY 1948 - 1998 DAVID GOODE CITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK DECEMBER, 1998 1 DEDICATION To Anne Kraus, a founding member of AHRC who passed away during the period of this writing. To Anne, to all the founding parents who have gone before her, and to those time has not yet claimed, I dedicate these pages. Through her life and those of the others, through what they achieved by extraordinary dedication to their children, let us all be reminded that we are but temporary residents here with a basic responsibility to help build a better world. 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I want to especially thank Shirley Berenstein and her assistant Dana Bilsky without whose cooperation this document would never have been completed. In addition, my gratitude to Gunnar Dybwad, former Executive Director of the National Association for Retarded Children and currently Director of the Samuel Gridley Howe Library on the grounds of the Fernald School in Boston, who provided access to his historical files and to those of Elizabeth Boggs. I would also like to acknowledge the role of Michael Goldfarb in helping to conceive this project, in considering and hiring me, and for the many hours of stimulating conversations that were a side-benefit of this writing. Finally my appreciation to all those who were interviewed, both formally and informally, and who contributed to my understanding of AHRC and of the parents' movement in the field of mental retardation. 3 "Faithfulness to the truth of history involves far more than a research, however patient and scrupulous, into special facts.
