About Me

My photo
Tom
I grew up on the tough streets of Chicago and through the love of my family and my own grit and determination, found a way to escape through the love of music and teaching. I've earned music degrees from DePaul University. We moved to Tucson in the mid 80's and have raised a great son here. Apart from my love of great jazz and classical music I have a passion for cooking and photography. I'll be posting some of my all-time favorite recipes from time to time, as well as photos, music education subjects and topical comments that cross my mind! You can email me at tfh2228@gmail.com. Stay tuned!
