September 25, 7:00PM Brooklyn Public Library Book Prize Shortlist Readings My book, The Killing Fields of East New York, is nominated for the Brooklyn Public Library Book Prize, and this is an event where the six nominees will be reading from their books.

My book made the non-fiction shortlist for the Brooklyn Library Book Prize!!

I’m giving a talk tonight, June 8, 2026, at 6:30PM, sponsored by The Roosevelt Island Historical Society at the Roosevelt Island Public Library, 504 Main Street.

I took a picture from my roof yesterday and thought, “There’s a lot more buildings around the Empire State Building, isn’t there?”

There are a few movies I watch when I’m having trouble falling asleep.

If you can’t make my virtual book talk tomorrow, you have options!

On 2/7 I’m doing an in-person/livestream event at Tom D’s Big New York Show, & this one involves prizes!

When I read about Bob Weir’s death I saw that he was 78, and I immediately flashed back to a pivotal moment in my life involving my friend Chris Hegarty.

Every five years or so I post about this choirboy.
