August 31, 2008 Joan, Just want you to know that my wife has found your book [In Pursuit of a Melody] absolutely fascinating and very humorous. She'll be reading silently and suddenly break out in laughter. I think it's because she can relate to some of your life experiences. What a rich, fascinating life you've lead and, book you wrote A.D. Smith, keyboardist

Joan,
I found your autobiography to be fascinating and engrossing with
an impressive photo collection of musicians who have touched your life. I am so proud of you for what you've done with your life since we
first met 3 decades ago. I especially admire your discipline in
doing the hard work that has resulted in publishing an important resource
book--specifically, your process of becoming the consummate
singer/entertainer that you are--generally, it's a value as a guide for
how aspiring singers can survive and succeed in the music business.

Received your package 2 days ago and have already read a good
portion of your book (I learned to speed read years ago). Had no idea that it is an autobiography! Many adjectives of praise
come to mind but suffice to say, it is fascinating and should
count for your Ph.D. Job well done!!
Love and Light.

Joan, It is a blessing to have you as a friend. And we have never even met face to face.
Ha ha ha. God is great!

Joan is a
visionary entrepreneur who is a veteran performer and pioneer in the Women's
Jazz Movement. She has organized festivals and educational programs
worldwide as well as in her immediate vicinity of South Florida. Her
presentations have been well received by her diverse audiences as enjoyable
and educational. She has been a cutting edge advocate for Women in Jazz
representing the movement in Europe, China and throughout the U.S. She had
also built bridges between jazz and hip hop on CD, the internet and in
person. I recommend her as a consultant, speaker, performer, historian, and
educator of the highest caliber. Nelson
Harrison, Ph.D., Adjunct Professor, Duquesne University - Mary
Pappert School of Music April 7, 2008 Joan,
I think what you do is great about educating people and women about Jazz. Joell

Wow! There is so much knowledge being
given in this book. Itreminds me of a music textbook. I'm finding it
very informative and it's nice to have a lot of the pictures that I did not
get from our trips. Aretta Davis, Washington, D.C.
July 5, 2007 Joan's book is entertaining from beginning to end. I could feel the warmth of her family history and hear her singing in the songs she wrote. I could hear her voice singing "A Woman Knows". Imust say Joan could not have done better, for it's her, all the way. I applaud Joan and wish her luckin allher travels on this earth, for we only pass this way once. Sheryl West, Tampa, FL
July 6, 2007 I have known Joan Cartwright for over 25 years. When she told me that her book was finished and was to be published,I could hardly wait to buy it and read it, as I was so proud and excited, too. In Pursuit of a Melody is an insightful journey through the life and musical experiences of Joan Cartwright. She has skillfully painted the pages with an in-depth and detailed pallet of colorsthat could only be brought forth through her vast experiences. The way in which she has interwoven the titles and lyrics of songs throughout the chapters is just ingenious and, of course, her compositions are diverse and soulful. Joan Cartwright is a mother, performer, singer, traveler and writer of music and books. She has a most wonderful story to tell and share. Sandy Patton, Swiss Jazz School, Berne, Switzerland
July 10, 2007 Joan’s book exemplifies the phrase, “Reading can take you on a journey.” You are actually on a whirlwind of traveling and visiting exciting places, engaging in fantastic activities. So many wonderful musicians, singers, talented people have touched Joan’s life .Oh! The pictures tell their own story as they appear full of love of each other and of their professions. The family pictures display the warmth of loving, devoted people.As you read, you want to read faster to get a glimpse of what is next. Wonderful reading and beautiful pictures! Oshunrire Naomi O.
