colterphoto1 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Chuck Workman, longtime jazz aficionado and radio host, from Indianapolis Indiana, passed away Sunday. He was a great supporter of the jazz scene in Indianapolis and will be greatly missed. He hosted a local radio show on WICR and working on a archives of jazz until the week he passed unexpectedly. Here is an image of him from the Indy Jazz Fest 2009. I was invited to be a staff photographer and got to get up close with Brandon Marsalis, Pancho Sanchez, Marcus Miller and many other local and national recording acts. Mr. Workman would interview each performer after they had finished their set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
