The Grateful Dead: Now Playing at the New-York Historical Society offers visitors a unique glimpse inside the world of an American cultural and musical phenomenon. In their thirty years together, the Grateful Dead forever altered the way in which popular music is performed, recorded, heard, marketed and shared. After incarnations as Mother McCree’s Uptown Jug Champions and The Warlocks, founding members took the name Grateful Dead in 1965, a pivotal time in American history, when the sensibilities of the Beat generation coincided with the spirit of the burgeoning hippie movement. Representing a countercultural response to the surrounding social turmoil—the civil rights movement, Vietnam War protests, and the women’s rights campaign—the Dead offered their loyal fans, the Deadheads, both continually evolving, boundary-crossing musical explorations and a sense of community that remain salient today. The Grateful Dead’s unprecedented personal interaction with their fans has created a bond that other bands can only hope to approximate through social networking sites like Facebook, Flickr and Twitter. Through a wealth of original materials, the exhibition will explore the musical creativity and influence of the Grateful Dead, the sociological phenomenon of the Deadheads and the enduring impact of the Dead’s pioneering approach to the music business. The Historical Society will celebrate Jerry Garcia's birthday on August 1 with 2-for-1 admission for visitors and special raffles.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
