Dexter Google...

______________________________________________________________________________________

If you google for images
of DEXTER GORDON...

You will probably not find
this photograph from
his junior high school
yearbook.

He may be the only legendary
jazz saxophonist who was also nominated for a Best Actor Academy Award (1986: Round Midnight)

Dexter Gordon was the tallest person in the back row of the McKinley JHS 1938 Yearbook.

If that is insufficient for identifying him,
try matching the face below to the student photo.

This image is from here.

For more information
about the yearbook photo,
click here.

Had Dexter Gordon
not attended Jefferson HS
after graduating
from McKinley,
this page would
not exist.

But his music is eternal!
Please give a look & listen
to Dexter Gordon performing
The Shadow of Your Smile.
