Thursday night (Sept. 5th) I attended a special double feature at the Italian American Museum in Manhattan. The program included a book presentation by author Giovanni Pellerito and a live performance by acclaimed Calabrian singer-songwriter Michéal Castaldo.
Treated to a glass of sparkling prosecco, we got comfortable and listened to Mr. Pellerito speak proudly about his latest work, Italians: Un Tricolore A Stelle E Strisce (A Flag With Stars And Stripes). Featuring the spectacular photography of Peter Zullo, the book is an intimate look at contemporary life in New York City's various "Little Italies."
