Biographical / Historical

Born in Washington, D.C., W. Royal Stokes served in the Army and then embarked on an academiccareer, teaching at the University of Pittsburgh, Tufts University, Brock University and the Universityof Colorado. He left the academic profession in 1969 and become a writer, broadcaster and lecturer,journalist, and critic and authority on jazz music. A follower of jazz since his teens in the 1940s, Stokeshas written about music for such publications as Down Beat, Jazz Times, and the Washington Post, andhosted the public radio shows "I Thought I Heard Buddy Bolden Say . . ." and "Since Minton's". Todayhe is the editor of the quarterly Jazz Notes, and is the author of The Jazz Scene: An Informal HistoryFrom New Orleans to 1990 and Swing Era New York: The Jazz Photographs of Charles Peterson.. He isalso the author of Living the Jazz Life: Conversations with Forty Musicians about Their Careers in Jazz(Oxford; New York: Oxford University Press, 2000). Dr. Stokes lives in Silver Spring, Maryland.

Scope and Contents

This collection was formed by W. Royal Stokes in the course of his professional work as a music and artscritic. It is composed primarily of publicity portraits of musical performers, both single acts and groups.The emphasis is on jazz musicians and singers, although many rock stars and groups, and other popularmusical performers are included. Even a few classical musicians are represented. The pictures areprimarily mass-produced black and white publicity photographs distributed to newspapers, writers, etc.,by agents for entertainment personalities. Some prints were made from the original negatives, whileothers clearly were made from copy negatives after typography was stripped together with a print andre-photographed. However, there are some rarer original photographs included in the collection, suchas personal color snapshots, higher quality prints by art photographers, etc. Nearly all the prints areunmounted, and are 8 x 10 inches or smaller in size. The bulk of the photographs date from circa 1970 to2000, however, a number of the earlier photographs are included as well as slightly later examples.
