- Marshall_Stearns abstract "Marshall Winslow Stearns (October 18, 1908, Cambridge, Massachusetts - December 18, 1966, Key West, Florida) was an American jazz critic and musicologist. He was the founder of the Institute of Jazz Studies.Stearns played drums in his teens, and attended Harvard University both for undergraduate and for law school (1929?-1934). Following this he studied medieval English at Yale University, where he took his Ph.D. in 1942. Stearns taught English at several U.S. colleges, and during this time wrote often about jazz music for magazines such as Variety, Saturday Review, Down Beat, Record Changer, Esquire, Harper's, Life, and Musical America. He received a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1950, and used the proceeds to finish his 1956 work The Story of Jazz, which became a widely used text, as well as a popular introduction to jazz. He began teaching jazz at New York University in 1950 and then at Hunter College from 1951. In 1952, he founded the Institute of Jazz Studies, which he directed. Later in the 1950s, he was a consultant to the United States State Department, and accompanied Dizzy Gillespie on a tour of the Middle East in 1956 sponsored by the office. He taught at the New School for Social Research (1954–56) and the School of Jazz in Lenox, Massachusetts. He and his second wife, Jean, wrote a second book, Jazz Dance, which was published posthumously in 1968.".
