For 30 years, Hazen Schumacher, '50, MA'51, was producer and host of the radio program "Jazz Revisited." The jazz historian and lecturer produced the show in Ann Arbor, and National Public Radio distributed it across the country. Schumacher also held a number of positions at U-M, including director of broadcasting and media resources, and director of the master's program in telecommunications. His newest book, "A Golden Age of Jazz Revisited 1939-1942: Three Pivotal Years of Musical Entertainment," describes a three-year period when jazz was the popular music around the globe. He talks here about his love of jazz and the influence it's had on his life.
