Book: Historic Photos of Broadway

Treated myself to a couple of chapters in this terrific pictorial history of Broadway.  It's amazing to read that an average 200 shows opened each season during the 1920s (260 in 1928 alone!).  Only 18 are scheduled to open between now and the close of the current season in May.

About Me

My CV includes editing the Arts section of Time Magazine, writing for the still-missed TheaterWeek magazine, teaching arts reporting at the City University of New York’s Graduate School of Journalism and being married to a longtime pit musician. I am also a member the Advisory Committee of the American Theatre Wing and of the Outer Critics Circle. That means that most of my theater tickets are comped (which the FTC now requires me to disclose) but I promise you that my thoughts about the shows I see won’t be compromised.
