A 25-year-veteran of newsrooms operated by the USA Today Network, John W. Barry’s passion for writing and love of music laid the groundwork for his book, Levon Helm: Rock, Roll & Ramble—The Inside Story of the Man, the Music and the Midnight Ramble. John grew up in Bardonia, NY, is a proud graduate of Clarkstown South High School and SUNY New Paltz and was ready to roll when the call came from Levon to tell his story. The book’s foreword was written by Ringo Starr.

Steven Bernstein has arranged music for films by Woody Allen and Robert Altman, has had compositions choreographed for the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater and Twyla Tharp, and arranged Hal Wilner projects, including an Apollo Theater performance featuring U2 and the Sun Ra Arkestra. Bernstein was also an anchor of the Levon Helm Band horn section and critical component of the late Band drummer’s Midnight Ramble house concerts, which drew sold-out crowds for years and inspired three Grammy-winning albums.
