He is best known for his association with jazz guitarist, Gabor Szabo, but has been extensively involved in many genres of music; not only as a guitarist, but also as an arranger, conductor, producer, orchestrator, musical director, and educator. Stewart has appeared on over 1,200 recordings. Leonard Feather wrote in his Encyclopedia Of Jazz In The Seventies: “Stewart, an exceptionally experienced and able artist on all plectrum instruments, attributes his inspiration to a range of influences, from Segovia and Bartok to Charlie Christian and Laurindo Almeida."
  • Throughout his seven decades in Hollywood, Stewart cultivated a versatile career and recognized screen image in such classics as Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, The Philadelphia Story, Harvey, It's a Wonderful Life, Rear Window, Rope and Vertigo. Jimmy Stewart is performing his role of George Bailey in It's a Wonderful Life. Just when he decides he wants to live, Lois Griffin, in her rampage through Quahog, pushes him, as Bailey, off a bridge in "A Very Special Family Guy Freakin' Christmas".
