Throughout all my work at the Smithsonian, I focused my efforts on fulfilling two of the four grand challenges: valuing world cultures and understanding the American experience. With the support of the Smithsonian Women’s Committee, I developed a bilingual (English/Spanish) jazz educational website to promote the release of Jazz: The Smithsonian Anthology. This website, won the 2012 “Outstanding Website” award in the non-profit category from the Web Marketing Association. It includes an interactive mixer and world map of jazz today, a timeline with musical examples, and educational videos.
