15、a home in PortSt. Lucie just minutes from the ocean, an uncontrollable urge wells up to return to Long Island even as others make their waysouth. I guess I am a snowbird stuck inreverse. Instead of enjoying Floridas mild winters, I willingly endure the severe weather on Long Island, the place I call
16、ed home for 65years. Im like a migratory bird(候鸟)that has lost its sense of timing and direction, my wingsflapping againstseason.

23、17 NEA Jazz Master, a series of thoughts and feelings flooded hermind. “It was so far out of my orbit and just my whole sphere of thinking,” she said in a conversation at NPR this spring, hours before she formally received heraward. Shes 66-far from retirement age in jazz, and on the extreme forward
24、 edge of the NEA Jazz Masterspeople. So she was aware of her relative youth in thefield. She also recognized that there havent been many women in the ranks of NEA JazzMasters: fewer than 20, out of145.

25、 seated back in 1992,and Abbey Lincoln, who received the nod in2003.
