About This Offer Join in as an ArtistShare Executive Publisher of the authorized Ron Carter biography (##productdeliverydate##), and you will be prominently credited as a key player in making this project come to life. As the writer of this biography and creator of its in-depth online presence, I am exploring the storied past, vibrant present and creative future of this National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Master-the highest honor our country bestows on jazz artists. As an ArtistShare Executive Publisher, you will help make the telling of Ron's story possible. In gratitude for this, you will be highlighted throughout the project, from credit on the website to foremost acknowledgment on a dedication page in the book.

You will also have the opportunity to interface with Ron in person over lunch or dinner, backstage at a concert, or at a recording session. As an ArtistShare Executive Publisher, you will gain behind-the-scenes access as this project evolves. To the best of my knowledge, this will be the first biography of its kind: the written word in a final book format that will also exist in a multiplatform framework, including streaming audio and video components.

Since Ron fully supports this project, you will be afforded purview of his story through a series of exclusive interviews in his Manhattan home, backstage commentary, recording dates, dynamic rehearsals and triumphant performances, ranging from Carnegie Hall to Hollywood Bowl. Through this comprehensive chronicling of Ron's life, you witness the unfolding of story by listening to ongoing interviews and viewing online photos and streaming videos documenting his appearances.
