Summary
  1. Henry Grimes (1935-2020) was an American jazz double bassist. A versatile and innovative player, Grimes performed with some of the leading jazz performers of the 1950s and 1960s including Sonny Rollins, Thelonious Monk, Cecil Taylor, and more. After withdrawing from the music world, Grimes lived an ascetic life in Los Angeles for 30 years. He emerged in 2002, reestablishing his legacy as an important jazz figure. The Henry Grimes papers documents his life as a performer through recordings from across his career and details his life away from music through the many notebooks kept during his years in Los Angeles.
