SUMMARY:Growing Up Bank Street a Book Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Growing Up Bank Street a Book Discussion\n\n\n\nDonna Florio’s fierce love letter to a quintessential city street and the characters who lived\, laughed\, cried\, and sometimes died there.\n \n\n\n\n\nBank Street is at once ordinary and an extraordinary panorama of America.\nAs the only child of a family that worked in the opera\, Bank Street in the 1960s was Florio’s playground\, its residents her extended family. Neighbors ran the gamut from painters\, social activists\, writers\, longshoremen\, actors\, postmen\, musicians\, trust-fund bohemians\, and office workers.\nBank Street had a charm and diversity that attracted people like the urbanist Jane Jacobs (who lived around the corner from Bank Street on Hudson Street) and famous residents like John Lennon\, Yoko Ono\, John Cage\, and Merce Cunningham.\nIt was home to famous eccentrics like Marion Tanner – the model for Auntie Mame – activists like Bella Abzug and society figures like Jack Heineman Jr.\nThis is a rare opportunity to hear and ask questions of someone who had a stoop side seat to one of the most fascinating blocks in the most extraordinary city in the world.\nClick here to get a ticket for the event
