About
This hybrid (in-person and online) film debut and cocktail reception for “Train Keeps a Rolling” honors the life of the world-renowned guitarist Jeff Golub and his wife, Audrey Stafford. They were living a near-perfect life when Jeff suddenly lost his sight at the age of 56. What at first seemed a surmountable hurdle soon evolved into a much larger problem, as it became clear that Jeff had also developed a rare neurological disorder, progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP).
