Dr. Karen A. Chandler of the College of Charleston, who founded the Initiative with McCray in 2003, reflects on McCray’s contributions.
” What is so cool and so meaningful is how he embodied two entities: a researcher and historian who wanted to preserve jazz history and a great advocate of the music. Jack wanted everybody to experience jazz. It was he who envisioned Jazz Artists of Charleston.”
