About the Author:
"The lusty, sad, startling, funny, bawdy -- even cruel -- stories are so immediate one becomes convinced anew that New York is, as the song has it, a wonderful town." -- Publishers Weekly
"The speakers are a diverse lot; many have lived through interesting events. The accounts are vivid and down to earth. We catch the distinct flavor of neighborhoods as they were." -- Library Journal
"A can't-put-it-down oral history." -- David Gates, Newsweek
"In You Must Remember This, Jeff Kisseloff, an inquisitive New York journalist, has determined the contours of Manhattan's state of mind during a 50-year period that ended with World War II. He has done his work splendidly, listening to scores of old Manhattanites recalling their city through the foggy mists of intervening years... What a wonderful warehouse of memory this volume is!... Indispensable... It is not only highly informative, but it is also great fun to read." -- Richard F. Shepard, New York Times
Jeff Kisseloff is a native New Yorker whose grandfather owned a dry goods shop on Orchard Street. He holds a master's degree in journalism from Columbia University and currently works out of his Westchester County home as a freelance writer.
