The Betty Boards Foundation was established by Betty Cantor-Jackson and her friends, to empower women in the production and live music industries who have faced significant life challenges. We provide financial support to help these women reclaim their independence, elevate their craft, and thrive both personally and professionally. Through community, creativity, and conscious giving, we honor the legacy of women who turn up the volume on resilience and rewrite the story of what’s possible behind the scenes.
Betty Cantor-Jackson is known throughout the world as the legendary recordist and producer for The Grateful Dead whose stellar recordings of the band not only created a lasting legacy of their concerts via her dedication to sonic excellence, but saw those same World Class recordings get shared via cassettes (and now digital files) between Deadheads around the world. The Grateful Dead famously allowed their fans to record their shows from the audience, thus creating a very large library of fan-recorded concerts of varying quality; that said, Betty's pristine recordings made by mixing the raw signals to the house soundboard resulted in custom mixes very lovingly known as "Betty Boards", which in Deadhead parlance designates them as the highest quality "soundboard" recordings ever created. Betty's work with Chris Robinson and others continues to this day, and she does all she can to not let her current challenges distract her from doing what she loves to do...which of course brings musical pleasure to all who hear her handiwork.
