The magical city at dinner time

From magician Bob Friedhoffer demonstrating how to behave if your wallet catches on fire to George Schindler on playing a magician in    Woody Allens’ great old film, New York Stories (with Curb Your Enthusiasm’s Larry David playing the stage hand in the same scene), enjoy the sights, sounds, and backstory on New York City’s best kept secret — lunch at the Magician’s Table at the Cafe Edison.  It’s my latest, out today in flyp magazine, and brought to you here with my best wishes.

(Don’t miss the audio and video flyp is famous for incorporating into its digital pieces.  My favorite?  The sound of turning pages as you “flip” through it by clicking the arrow on the bottom right corner.)

    About Me

    I've written short pieces for The New Yorker about the first Arab prince in outer space, a Ph.D who travels the world studying garbage, an Australian attorney who played werewolves in the movies, and the man who set the “Pledge of Allegiance” to music. I've written pieces for The New York Times about olfactory sculpture dropped from a plane on thousands of tiny cards on New Year's Eve, and inscriptions on old buildings that have become ironic over time. At ABC, Bravo, A&E, and PBS, I wrote live interviews with celebrities and docs about Hemingway, Dorothy Parker, and lesser known poets. It's culture and arts. It's people in the news. It's the ongoing comedy of who we are. I hope you enjoy it here at True/Slant and write in to tell me what you think. Also hope to hear your ideas and stories at "Third Screen" on www.huffingtonpost and www.thirdscreenconfidential.com

    What I'm Up To

    Ping pong project

    A piece called Hip Hop Meets Ping Pong.  The thrill of victory.   The agony of defeat.  And you can dance to it.  Stay tuned.
