  John Eaton Papers
Eaton was rewarded with a colonel's commission in the 63rd U.S. Colored Infantry, raised near Vicksburg, and was brevetted Brigadier General in March, 1865.
Eaton remained in the south, editing a 'radical' Unionist newspaper, the Memphis Post, from 1866-67, and under the school law of 1867, won election as state superintendant of education.
Eaton's experience and political savvy are credited with salvaging the floundering Bureau of Education from congressional annihilation, and he personally oversaw the development of the Bureau's collection of statistics.

First joining the Indiana University faculty in 1970, John Eaton is currently Professor of Music Composition at the University of Chicago.

 John Eaton : Made in America - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Eaton has usually preferred to record unaccompanied (something he has in common with Dave McKenna), and that approach serves him well on Made in America.
Eaton is a very melody-minded pianist; when he interprets Weill's "September Song" or Kaper's haunting "Invitation," he doesn't treat the melodies like a mere afterthought.
One of Kaper's most famous pieces, "Invitation" is from the 1950 film A Life of Her Own (an excellent but underrated classic that stars Lana Turner as a model who sets herself up for heartbreak when she becomes romantically involved with a married man).

Eaton explains why he believes ME/CFS and FMS is not caused by viruses or by psychological issues, but by an overactive hypothalamus (the ‘master gland’ in your brain).
Eaton argues that ‘hypothalamitis’ is caused by internal/external environmental pressure/s and that your symptoms were brought on because something was ‘out of balance’ at the time.
But your ‘bodymind’, as Eaton refers to it, exists to protect you, and so Eaton explains how your body will continue to product those warning signals (symptoms) so long as the ‘problem’ exists.

Pianist John Eaton takes on Gershwin and Arlen standards on this live recording, serving up an hour of tender, contemplative moments.
Eaton's style occupies a fairly narrow range from introspective to cautiously exploratory.
