Leigh Kamman (1922-2014) was not only a Twin Cities jazz legend but a nationally and internationally recognized jazz guru whose thousands of interviews and radio broadcasts brought "The Jazz Image" to the world. He "retired" in 2007 but continued to support jazz while he worked to assemble an archive of his interviews. His legacy was honored by hundreds of fans and musicians in a non-stop evening of jazz at the Saint Paul Hotel, raising funds to continue work on his archives.
