#ad @johnniewalkerus Honored to have been celebrating this year’s outstanding achievements in television and raising a toast with @johnniewalkerus to the bold creative steps taken by those in the industry. It’s been good to be back to work but it’s important to remember that not everybody in our industry has returned just yet. Which is why @johnniewalkerus and I made a donation to the Motion Picture & Television Fund @mptf to continue to help members of the community get back on their feet. I hope you all will support the industry so we can not only uplift each other but blaze the trail for others to follow. #EMMYS #75thEmmys #KeepWalking

Are you even really back to work if you don’t take a trailer selfie? No, the answer is no.

Lester Young. A name I was not familiar with until @usvsbillieholiday . As I began to dig and find out as much information as I could about this man I realized he had already influenced my everyday life. Before Lester “bread” was only a food, a “crib” was only something you placed a baby in and “cool” was an approximate temperature. So if you understand what I mean when I say “ I’m just at the crib trying to get my bread right so I can step out looking cool” – that’s Lester. He coined these terms and pioneered the vernacular of the culture. He changed the way people not only heard the tenor saxophone but also how they played it. His note choice specific and airy. Choosing to float on top of rhythm rather than cut through it. Often turning his mouth piece, not just to add his only personal swag to the instrument, but to adjust his play and strengthen his unmatched stamina.
But what hit me the most was the way others spoke of his love for Billie. Lady, as he called her. That perhaps, was the most impressive. After we all pass, we expect people to speak on how we loved our families or our significant others but this type of plutonic love doesn’t get mentioned as much. Personally I don’t think we have enough depictions in the media of plutonic love between men and women. The beauty in that simply resonates differently. That love was something I really wanted to capture. Felt compelled to capture.

@usvsbillieholiday comes out in 2 days on Feb. 26th on @hulu. I hope you’ll take some time to watch and appreciate Billie, Lester and all of the other often unsung black people in not only Billie’s life but this time. #usvsbillieholiday #blackhistorymonth
