Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with Jazz Trumpet Legend Eddie Henderson on the 2024 Documentary Uncommon Genius .. This new PBS Documentary about the extraordinary life of Edward “Eddie” Henderson will receive its film world premiere at SMOKE Jazz Club in New York City on February 7, 2024 followed by a live set of music performed by Eddie and pianist George Cables. It will then be aired on PBS. This groundbreaking film offers a portrait of one of jazz’s greatest living artists & unpacks the journey of an American hero who served our nation in the Air Force, overcame racial barriers to become America’s first professional Black figure skater, and persisted to earn a medical doctorate and practice medicine. This was all done before launching his more than 60-year storied career with legends like Miles Davis and so many others. We cover some great ground .. Enjoy.
