George Malcolm-Smith
American novelist and jazz musicologist / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
George Malcolm-Smith (1901–1984) was an American novelist and jazz musicologist. A 1925 graduate of Trinity College, he hosted a jazz radio program on WTIC-FM in Hartford, Connecticut for many years.
He wrote eight humorous novels, most with "salty pictures by Carl Rose." His first novel was adapted into a Broadway musical in 1945 entitled Are You With It?. The musical was in turn adapted into a 1948 film.
He collected a large number of items related to jazz, which were given to the Watkinson Library at Trinity College after his death as dictated in his will.[1]
