OMG i have sewing patterns by Ralph Rucci and he’s in this Liza joint because he was one of Halston’s apprentices and Halston became Liza’s main designer and friend.
whenever i hear STUDIO 54 i immediately think of all the pics i saw in fashion mags of Halston, Liza and Bianca Jagger striking a pose at the club.
funny how i like Ralph Rucci because his patterns can be so unique. and he’s just part of Liza’s universe.

Ira Gershwin was Liza’s goddad. like… what kinda Broadway royalty!
the thing about being a Liza is that, notwithstanding her nepobaby status, she is the most talented and hardworking nepobaby in the history of USA entertainment.
you cannot just stan. you gotta be proud to be named after someone so special.

The first hour of the #AmericanMasters #documentary on #JanisIan - #BreakingSilence - is especially remarkable! Everyone should know her story ... You probably don't!

After watching the #PBS #AmericanMasters program on the life of the virtuoso pianist #HazelScott, I was reminded that I have her album "Relaxed Piano Moods" in my LP collection.
What's really interesting about this album apart from it's delightful sound is that while Scott is the lead player, her "backup" players for #MaxRoach & #CharlesMingus who (at the time (1955) were just emerging as two of the greatest #ModernJazz (#PostBop) musicians of the era who have since become legends of jazz.
Roach had only started playing with #Brownie (#CliffordBrown) in 1954 (who tragically died in a car accident just 2 years later) and it was only a year later in 1956 that #Mingus released his epic album "Pithecanthropus Erectus."
It is also notable the #DebutRecords which was the label that released this recording was founded by Roach & Mingus in 1952 (& went out of business in 1957) and that they thought so highly of Scott that they presumably volunteered to serve as her sidemen on the album!

#Jazz #Classical #Music #BlackWomen #CivilRights #WomensRights
I just watched a very interesting bio of #HazelScott on #PBS #AmericanMasters.
Scott was a #Black woman who was a #MusicalProdigy who was enrolled at #Julliard at a very young age, who mastered the classics but who made a living mainly playing jazz & #popular music w/crossovers to classical music.
Hazel was married (for a time) to #AdamClaytonPowell, had the 1st TV show in the 50's staring a #Black performer before #NatKingCole got one, made a few movies on her own terms before being #BlackListed from the #movies & from #TV because she stood up for the herself & the rights of others & who lived for a time in #Paris, like a lot of Black creative people did to escape the discrimination they felt in the #US.
If any of this interests you, I recommend that you watch the episode which you can find in the link below:

The #PBS #AmericanMasters doc film Carry It On has won an International #Emmy about the folk singer Buffy St. Marie, who since her appearance in the 60's #GreenwichVillage folk scene has said she is an #Cree Indian born on a #reservation in #Saskatchewan. The #CBC questions her #indigenous roots story after her recently unearthed #BirthCertificate into a family of #ItalianAmerican heritage in #Massachusetts as well as other evidence says otherwise .

Chance is a remarkable thing.
Were it not for the clouds over Kokura, Japan on August 9th, 1945, that city would have been blown to hell and back by Fat Man, the bomb that destroyed Nagasaki — the secondary target.
And because that happened, a man named Ted Fujita would survive and later go to the United States — where he would advance the study of tornados so much, and save so many lives, that they named the scale after him. #americanmasters #pbs
