Richard Zimmerman has been largely responsible for the world-wide revival of ragtime, and is one of its key figures as both a performer and a historian. Dick first became acquainted with ragtime while he was an engineering student at Stanford University. Today, he has a broad repertoire of several hundred rags, which he has performed around the world on stage, radio and television. He has appeared in concert and at music festivals throughout the United States and Canada, including the Montreal Jazz Festival and the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland.
