Duke Ellington was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize in 1965. He didn't win.
He was quoted as something like, ...the good lord doesn't want me to be too famous too soon.
Nice to see Ornette Coleman honoured. I guess he was able to be around long enough to garner this prestigious award.
Congratulations Ornette!

The actual Ellington quote re: the Pulitzer Prize is...:"Fate is being kind to me. Fate doesn't want me to be famous too young."
