Most of the photographs in Series VI were taken between 1976 and 1991, although some are significantly earlier, including one remarkable 1942 photograph of Powell on the eve of his induction into the Army, sitting at the piano with Count Basie, Teddy Wilson, Hazel Scott, and Duke Ellington. Sixteen photographs are of Powell alone; most of the remainder show him with other musicians, including Bethany Beardslee, Pierre Boulez, Elliott Carter, Alan Feinberg, Morton Feldman, Benny Goodman, Joan La Barbara, Peggy Lee, David Alan Miller, Morton Subotnick, Aki Takahashi, Robert Taub, and Joe Williams. A few show members of Powell's family. Most of the photographs are 8" x 10" and in black andwhite.
