Letter: Kathy Stobart inspired me to set up the Women's Jazz Archive

I interviewed Kathy Stobart in 1986 for the National Sound Archive oral history section. I wanted to know how she managed her life with three sons and a trumpeter husband. She laughed and said she had come back from touring and found that her husband Bert Courtley had flung all the dirty nappies into the back yard. "Thank God for our mothers," she said. Kathy was a delight and inspired me to set up the Women's Jazz Archive, which is now incorporated into Jazz Heritage Wales, based at Swansea Metropolitan University.
