ARTIST & INFLUENCE
651 ARTS Executive Director Georgiana Pickett will be interviewed for the Hatch-Billops Collection on Sunday, October 10, 2pm.
For almost 40 years, the New York City-based husband-and-wife artistic team Jim Hatch and Camille Billops have collected and documented the oral histories of leading African American artists from all fields of the performing and applied arts and published them in their annual journal Artist & Influence. The list of interviews is astounding, and includes Dizzy Gillespie, Jimmy Owens, Amiri Baraka, Don Cherry, Margo Humphrey, Judith Wilson, George C. Wolfe, Glenda Dickerson, Linda Goode-Bryant, Langston Hughes and many, many more. It is a great honor for Georgiana Pickett to give her perspective on the history and importance of 651 ARTS for this esteemed archive.
