Gordon Parks died today at the age of 93. I had the opportunity to meet this great man when we put together Irvin Mayfield/Gordon Parks, Half Past Autumn Suite CD that is music that was commissioned to honor Mr. Parks. It is music that Irvin wrote that is inspired by Mr. Parks’ art. For a story on his life and death click on this link:
