I often found their assignments pretty fascinating and a chance to take my mind off music and use another part of my brain.
Since history is really the only other thing I consider myself decent at, besides music, I actually enjoyed going to students’, often palatial, townhouses and apartments and teaching them the basic facts of American, European or even World History.
I had studied history in college and found a job as a history tutor for some of Manhattan’s wealthiest families. It was clear that we wouldn’t be able to stay in our one bedroom apartment with a new baby and having turned 30, I decided I needed to earn more. I had been making somewhat of a living playing gigs around New York City as a bass player which included playing in musical theater pit orchestras, gospel churches, studio sessions with singer/songwriters and even some weddings. In 2005, shortly after my son was born, I realized that I needed another source of income.
