MY NEW BOOK: Photographs of 1980s Brooklyn in vintage black & white

Brooklyn on the Brink cover

NOW AVAILABLE!

Images of a lost time and place… my hidden trove of photographs of life in old Brooklyn in the 1980s, a Brooklyn remaking itself, shot for a newspaper that no longer exists and is unsearchable on the Internet. This is my Brooklyn story. It is a tale of a special part of New York City, a fabled slice of urban America on the edge of transformation.
