Preserving The Culture of Home with Ben Jaffe, Creative Director Preservation Hall

  • Summary

  • You also might know Ben from his time as a creative director of the world famous Preservation Hall Jazz Band. He’s also a film producer, entrepreneur, and even a member of the band where he plays tuba and bass.

     

    I’ve known Ben since childhood. I grew up running around Preservation Hall with my best friend, Ben’s cousin. We talk all about New Orleans, and the role that he and Preservation Hall play in it. We talk about the history and founding of Preservation Hall, what it’s like to be a touring musician, the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in 2005, and more.

     

    You’ll want to stick around until the very end, where Ben dives into an amazing story about when the superdome was reopened after Hurricane Katrina.
