  1. Did you ever meet Bill Bennett, a friend out here who previously was very wrapped in the East Coast jazz community, worked on some big Smithsonian jazz project?

    Ring any bells?

  2. Hi Rich,
    The name doesn’t ring a bell, but I see there is a Bill Bennett that writes (or has written) for Jazz Times magazine. I guess I must have missed him in my travels. I’d be interested in knowing what he did with the Smithsonian.
