Councilwoman Jackson with Town Historian Robert Hughes, President of Friends of the John Coltrane Home- Steve Fulgoni, Charla Bolton of the Historical Society, Chair of the AAHDC Irene Moore and local historian Rex Metcalfe.

On September 6th, Councilwoman Glenda Jackson hosted a private tour of John Coltrane's former home in Dix Hills for the African-American Historic Designation Council (AAHDC).

John Coltrane resided in Huntington from 1964-1967, the last three years of his life.  His most famous and significant work, A Love Supreme, arguably one of the most influential works in all of music history, was written in this house.

The AAHDC toured the home as part of an ongoing effort to explore and document the rich and diverse history of African Americans in the Town of Huntington.  The history of the home was brought to life by local historians and the President of the Friends of the John Coltrane Home, Steve Fulgoni.
