Psyched to announce my new book BICENTENNIAL CHIC: Bronx Bombers, Son of Sam, Kissteria, & the Birth of Saturday Night Fever…a sprawling New York City odyssey straight through the debaucherous heart of the 1970s, set against a kaleidoscopic background of music, media, sports, fashion, sex, greed and murder. As the country pushes toward the biggest birthday celebration in its history, landmark events in Hollywood, professional sports, rock and roll music and the underground dance floors of New York City will inevitably merge black, white, straight and gay subcultures into mainstream America. The book takes us through multiple intersecting simultaneous stories that in the space of 18 months profoundly alter and reshape American pop culture long into the future. BICENTENNIAL CHIC will be released through Ingram on June 2, 2026.
