Occupation macademia
Location LIving for the Cit-ay, United States
Introduction I am a native Cincinnatian with a perfectly symmetrical name. Three names, each an inheritance from a great black man: a jazz trumpeter, an acclaimed photographer, and my daddy (who brings a jazz sensibility to his photography). I have a PhD in American Studies. Some say the PhD is bull$hit piled higher and deeper. On this blog, we shall find out. I can't live without books, music, good acting, my family, my incomparable friends, or you, dear readers, who complete me.
