About This Offer Join me in participating in the authorized Ron Carter biography project, an important biography that will be adding yet another chapter into the rich history of jazz, the truly American art form.

As an ArtistShare Gold Participant, you will significantly contribute to the creation of this project. Thanks to your generosity, you will be recognized on a dedication page at the front of the final book (##productdeliverydate##) as well as on the official project website.

You will have intimate access to my ongoing creative process of writing the biography as well as receive selective podcasts and journal entries that document the development of the book. You will also be participating in what promises to be a pioneering book-publishing project. 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 audio and video components. (See the ArtistShare Executive Publisher offer sheet for more details on the scope of this project as well as its importance not only in offering a new publishing model but also its impact on further documenting the rich tradition of jazz in American culture.)

Thank you sincerely for your support in making the authorized Ron Carter biography a reality.
