This meeting will feature a discussion by Terry Trilling-Josephson about her book, Café Society: the Wrong Place for the Right People. Her late husband, Barney Josephson opened a jazz club named “Café Society” in 1938, the first to integrate both the staff and the customers. He helped promote singers such as Billie Holiday, Alberta Hunter, Sarah Vaughan, and many others.

This memoir pieces together Barney’s tape-recorded recollections and capsule oral histories about jazz greats and includes the story of Barney’s setbacks when his Communist brother Leon was called to testify to the House Un-American Activities Committee.
