[JPL] Herb Pomeroy: A Jazz Portrait

[Steve Schwartz]

On August 11th trumpet player and educator Herb Pomeroy passed away at his home in Gloucester, Massachusetss.
Back in 1993 Herb was awarded a Jazz Achievement Award by The New England Foundation for The Arts. I got to produce a radio documentary to celebrate that award. 
That documentary, "Herb Pomeroy: A Jazz Portrait" is now available on the WGBH website.
Simply go to:

www.wgbh.org/jazz

There you will find the "Jazz Portraits" link. Herb is at the top of the list.

It will also be broadcast on "Jazzfrom Studio Four: this Friday night at 9pm.

SPREAD THE WORD!

For those interested there will be a Memorial Service honoring Herb this Sunday, September 9th at 3pm at Emmanuel Church, 15 Newbury Street, Boston, Mass.
