Over seven decades, Quincy Jones’ career has encompassed the roles of composer, record producer, artist, film producer, arranger, conductor, instrumentalist, TV producer, record company executive, television station owner, magazine founder, multimedia entrepreneur and humanitarian. As producer and conductor of the historic “We Are the World” recording (best-selling single of all time) and Michael Jackson’s RIAA multi-Platinum certified solo albums Off the Wall, Bad and Thriller (the best-selling album of all time, with over 100 million copies sold worldwide), Jones stands as one of the most successful and admired creative artists/executives in the history of the entertainment world.
A Tony Award for Best Revival of a Musical for the Broadway production of The Color Purple completed the rare EGOT set for Jones, an exclusive club of artists who have received an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony Award. He will next serve as producer, along with Oprah Winfrey and Steven Spielberg, of the forthcoming feature film of the critically acclaimed musical.
