The Beryl Booker Project

"They didn't want no woman playing no piano.
So I had to say, move off the bench, Daddy-O, here I am."

Welcome to the new
Beryl Booker Project page!

This project was undertaken to commemorate the largely unrecognized contributions of this important female artist during the golden era of jazz. Please visit us frequently to keep up on the latest developments, including updates on our currently in production documentary on Beryl Booker. We are starting a major build out of the Beryl Booker Project site. Drop us a line to let us know how we're doing and what you'd like to see on the site. Support the arts!
