During a many-faceted career in bank management, teaching, insurance adjustment, and government administration, Kathleen MacQuilliam Caponiti found time to earn a master's degree by poring over coursework in the corners of neighborhood restaurants. She also raised a son and daughter, both of whom have established successful careers without apparent symptoms of serious neuroses. In the autumn of her life, Kathleen conducts an ongoing symposium for her grandsons and granddaughters regarding the perils of life, many of which had not been managed very well in her own youth.

She finally retired in 2018 at the age of seventy-four from the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission. While regaling her stories with coworkers, many of them encouraged her to write a book. With the free time that retirement allotted her, she has embarked on her first book (this one) and hopes you enjoy it.

Pages : 412
Book Description
For a half century, Ben Webster, one of the "big three" of swing tenors-along with Coleman Hawkins and Lester Young-was one of the best-known and most popular saxophonists. Early in his career, Webster worked with many of the greatest orchestras of the time, including those led by Willie Bryant, Cab Calloway, Benny Carter, Fletcher Henderson, Andy Kirk, Bennie Moten, and Teddy Wilson. In 1940 Webster became Duke Ellington's first major tenor soloist, and during the next three years he played on many famous recordings, including "Cotton Tail." Someone to Watch Over Me tells, for the first time, the complete story of Ben Webster's brilliant and troubled career. For this comprehensive study of Webster, author Frank Büchmann-Møller interviewed more than fifty people in the United States and Europe, and he includes numerous translated excerpts from European periodicals and newspapers, none previously available in English. In addition, the author studies every known Webster recording and film, including many private recordings from Webster's home collection not available to the public. Exhaustively researched, this is a much needed and long overdue study of the life and music of one of jazz's most important artists.
