The Wall Street Journal: Tad Hendrickson: 19th May, 2013.

The 1958 Art Kane photo "A Great Day in Harlem" featured 57 jazz musicians posed on the steps and sidewalk in front of a Harlem brownstone. It is arguably the most famous jazz photo ever taken. Riffing on that photo, the Jazz Foundation of America hosted its 12th Annual A Great Night in Harlem performance and gala Friday night at the Apollo Theater, which around the corner from the site of the famous photo.

"The idea was born when I first took this job," recalled Wendy Oxenhorn, the executive director of the organization. "I didn't know much about Jazz—I was a straight bluesman—so I rented Jean Bach's 'A Great Day in Harlem' documentary figuring I'd learn who was who, like a mini-history lesson. When I was watching it, I thought, How amazing would it be to get all the jazz legends left today to come together and create a living playing photograph in Harlem on the stage of the Apollo?"

Ms. Oxenhorn and the JFA pulled the initial one together in nine weeks, presenting the first jazz-and-blues concert at the Apollo in 50 years to a packed house 13 days after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

That night they raised $350,000 with just a concert. The JFA has since raised over ...

Marcus Samuelsson Reveals His All-Time Favorite Harlem Fried Chicken Joint

Each week in our Chefs Off Duty series, we talk to some of our favorite chefs and industry folk around the country to find out their secret late-night spots where they like to grab a bite and a pint when their kitchens are finally closed. Next up: Marcus Samuelsson , the chef/owner behind Harlem's wildly popular Swedish-meets-soul food emporium, Red Rooster and its sister subterranean supper club, Ginny's , and the author of the James Beard award-winning memoir Yes, Chef , which comes out on paperback tomorrow. Where is your favorite place to go get a bite to eat when you're leaving your own restaurant? I love Charles' [Country Pan] Fried Chicken , which is on 150th and Eighth Avenue. It's tiny -- it's a classic mom and pop. It's an all-day, American Southern soulfood restaurant. Most people don't really eat in but I eat in or take the meal across the street. It's a staple of the community. People come after work, bring the box home or go eat it on the way to work. People are there all day. I have a little bit of collard greens and a little bit of peas and then I go over and watch basketball. There's a legendary outdoor basketball court here in Harlem where basketball players like Kobe Bryant go in the summer to play with the street guys. It's one of my favorite things. How did you first come across Charles'? Before I opened [Red] Rooster, I biked and walked a lot around the neighborhood to learn what the community was about and ...

I was walking through Harlem the other day and came upon a sign for Harlemgrown.org in an empty lot across the street from Red Rooster, Sylvias, Etc. I decided to learn more about it abd wanted to share it with you. From their site: Harlem Grown is an independent, non-profit organization that partners with the NYC Parks Department and Department of Education and a variety of food advocacy and community agriculture organizations. The main function of Harlem Grown is to connect local public schools to the greater community through the use of common garden spaces and mutually engaging activities. They raise support for physical renovation of abandoned lots, providing the tools, supplies and manpower to physically transform wasted space into a vibrant garden classroom through a number of grant sponsored initiatives. We also work to engage pro-bono partners in developing a structured learning curriculum that lets kids participate from the planning through the planting, crop management and harvest and finally to food preparation, nutrition and even sales. Their mission is to increase the capacity of communities and students to access nature and green spaces, to engage these communities with nutritional and outdoor educational opportunities and improve access to a wider range of healthy foods while focusing on food justice issues. They address these goals by creating a living classroom opportunity for urban and at risk students and offe ...
