Quincy Delightt Jones Jr. is an American music impresario, conductor, record producer, musical arranger, film composer and trumpeter. During 50 years in the entertainment industry Jones’ work has earned him more than 70 Grammy Award nominations, more than 25 Grammy Awards, and a Grammy Legends Award in 1991.

In 1968, Jones and his songwriting partner Bob Russell became the first African-Americans to be nominated for an Academy Award in the Best Original Song category. That same year, he became the first African-American to be nominated twice within the same year when he was nominated for Best Original Score for his work on the music of In “Cold Blood”. Jones was also the first (and so far, the only) African-American to be nominated as a producer in the category of Best Picture for “The Color Purple”. He was also the first African-American to win the Academy’s Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award, in 1995.
