Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
Thank you for the article about the Hull House celebration and their remembrance of Milt Hinton (Sept. 19). It touches me personally for two reasons. First, I was director for 24 years of the church camp in Saugatuck, Mich. It was an outgrowth of a settlement house that had its beginning in 1896 just down the street from Hull House.
But, second, I wish they had remembered another man who had his musical beginning on the piano at Hull House-Art Hodes. He`s 86, but this year he`s played professionally at the Chicago Jazzfest, at Fitzgerald`s, Green Mill and the Rockford Jazzfest.
