Terry Teachout is the drama critic for the Wall Street Journal. He’s also a jazz musician, and the author of several books. In 2009, he published a highly regarded biography of Louis Armstrong, and last year he released a beautifully written and insightful biography of Duke Ellington. It's called "Duke: A Life of Duke Ellington." Terry Teachout joins Tom Hall on the line from New York.
You can meet Terry Teachout tonight at the Enoch Pratt Central Library. He’ll be reading from and speaking about the book in the Poe Room at 6:30. More information here.
