“After serving in the Navy during World War II, he trained at the Juilliard Conservatory and then worked as a bandleader at a university in New Orleans. Eventually he broke into the red-hot New Orleans music scene as a big band leader for the likes of blues guitarist B.B. King, playing the piano and arranging music…In 1973, he moved to the Los Angeles area and started an independent music publishing business. He also began devoting himself to helping black artists recoup the rights to their works” (The Atlantic Journal-Constitution, 12/10/2005).
