New York Stories will be the theme for this month, though neither Gay Talese nor Robert DeNiro will be in attendance. Come hear Doug Quint, proprietor of NYC's newest, proudest food truck, the Big Gay Ice Cream Truck; Harvey Wang, photographer for the book Flophouse: Life on the Bowery, a photojournal of downtown Manhattan's last skid row; and Salvatore “Buddy” Scotto, owner of the Scotto Funeral home and unofficial mayor of Brooklyn's Carroll Gardens neighborhood.
