MAJOR CITATIONS, ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, AWARDS AND PUBLIC SERVICE AS RECOGNIZED EXPERT:

1. Interviewed by the Grenada Broadcasting Unit in Carriacou, Grenada on the Culture of Carriacou for release on both Radio and television, February 1999.

2. Judge for the World Calypso Monarch Preliminary Competition, Newark, New Jersey, June 1996.

3. Judge for the World Calypso Monarch Finals held at the Brooklyn Center for the Performing Arts at Brooklyn College on July 23, 1994. Contestants came from the United States, nine Caribbean countries, and Germany. For my money judging a competition like this is the best acknowledgment that an anthropologist can have, since it was totally West Indian sponsored and managed.

4. Calypso Calaloo was co-winner of the 1994 Chicago Folklore Prize, announced by the Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures of the University of Chicago. This is the oldest and most prestigious folklore book prize. It has been given annually since 1928 by the International Folklore Association. This book was also a finalist for Best Book Award published in 1993 (concerning a folk or ethnic recorded music), by the Association of Recorded Sound Collections (ARSC), Greenwich, Conn. It has been widely reviewed (over 40 reviews), including Billboard Magazine (where the editor called it a "popular music classic") and the Washington Post, as well as the usual academic reviews.

5. Very wide acknowledgment in many dissertations, books, ethnomusicological recordings, and articles by other scholars in the field, as having an important influence on the work in question.

6. "Calypso Pioneers" was reviewed and cited in “American Folk Music and Folklore Recordings 1989: A Selected List,” (American Folklife Center, The Library of Congress) as one of the best folk music recordings of 1989. This CD was a featured part of the NPR internationally syndicated radio program entitled, "History in Motion: the Calypso," originally broadcast in the United States on Saturday July 16, 1994. Two selections from this CD were featured in July 1994, on Part One of a Four Part National Public Radio international broadcast on the "Horizons" series on music of the Caribbean and on other Public Radio presentations.

7. Some of my publications are cited in various citation indexes. All of the CDs published since 1990 have been reviewed extensively on the internet.

8. I was an "expert discussant on Carnival" on a public radio talk show (by phone) aired live on Chicago Public Radio, Feb. 28, 1995.

3. Audio and video recording of Carnival in Carriacou, Grenada, February 1999.

4. Maintenance of 18,000 item data base of the Hill Sound and Music Archive. This data base stresses traditional music and early commercial 'world' music from 1892 to about 1964. Information or recordings from the data base have been used by National Public Television, Document Records (Vienna, Austria), National Public Radio, and ethnomusicological archives and researchers.

5. Hundreds of hours of my ethnomusicological recordings are stored at the Indiana University Archive of Traditional Music in Bloomington, Indiana. Included are many pages of notes with the recordings. This research tool is listed in the appropriate databases on the Internet (FirstSearch).

6. In January, 1992, I visited Cuba on a seminar (funding from the State University College at Oneonta was rescinded during a budget freeze). While there I made contacts with staffs at the Biblioteca Nacional, the Center for Research and Development of Cuban Music, and the Center for Popular Culture. I recorded about 20 hours of interviews with experts on early recorded Cuban music.

7. Copies of some of my archival material on West Indian Carnival in New York City have been deposited with the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, New York City Library.

8. Approximately three years continuous field work in Carriacou, Grenada and Trinidad from early 1970 to late 1972. Another brief field trip was taken to Carriacou in August, 1978.

11. Folk music field recording in the United States, Mexico, Korea, and the Caribbean (intermittent since 1958).

12. Grants written while Assistant Curator, American Museum of Natural History:

(a) Revitalization of circulating exhibits (New York State Council on the Arts, 1974).

(b) Caribbean and Afro‑American Studies Workshop Programs (the National Endowment for the Arts, 1975‑76).

This program (1974-1976) trained Americans from many different backgrounds: American Indians,

African Americans, Chinese Americans, Latinos, and others. The program was an attempt to give

access to people from groups whose cultures were represented in museum collections but who

were not represented on museum staffs. I believe that this program was one of the first of its kind in

the United States. Primarily because of their own abilities, but also because of the access to the

museum world that this program has given them, individuals who have completed the program have

gone on, for example, to head the museum at Navajo Community College on the Navajo

Reservation in Arizona, run African American museums, and serve on the Board of Directors of the

Smithsonian Institution. Another duty I had while at the Museum, was to screen ethnographic films for an annual showing. This program, which I began in the Dept. of Education at the American Museum of Natural History, was expanded after I left the Museum and became the "Margaret Mead Film Festival," one of the largest, regularly scheduled ethnographic film shows for the public held anywhere in the world.

13. Field audio recordings of Mexican, Anglo-American, Afro-American, Greek, Korean, and Turkish music made between 1957 and 1968 in the United States, Korea, and Mexico.
