How long did it take you to find a good teacher?

When I "came back" I took up with a local community college and found myself attracted to the sound concept of several players. When I asked them I was surprised to find that all of the plyers whose approach I liked best all studied with the same teacher. I called that guy up and was very happy with the results.
If the same is impractical for you then posting your locale here will likely result in some good recomendations.

I suspect there are one or two in the area...  What level, what kind of music?

I'm an adult beginner with no prior brasswind experience, jazz in particular.
