Hot, hot, hot...Polly Adler in Atlantic City in the summer of 1926. This was considered an extremely fasionable and sexy swimsuit.

I know some folks are not Amazon fans, but I'm feeling good about them today because they are featuring my first book - The Most Famous Man in America: The Biography of Henry Ward Beecher - on a wicked sale of $1.99. As a frugal buyer, I love it!

Here’s another fun news item in this season of dread – the Honorable Diane Kiesel has a brand new book on Charlie Chaplin’s sex scandals and legal woes. I had the privilege of recording a lively conversation with her on the Biographers International Podcast. And, she’ll be appearing live at a number of terrific events in NYC, including at the Lambs Club and the New York Society Library. Maybe I’ll see you there! /news/podcast/podcast-202-diane-kiesel/

Hey, here’s a fun, unexpected new item. One March 1st I’ll be attending the world premiere of a new opera about my madam, Polly Adler! I don’t know much about opera, but I know Polly would be absolutely thrilled if she were here to see what the Killer Queen Opera company has done. In keeping with the spirit of the Jazz Age, there is both a Pre-Party and an After-Party! Maybe I’ll see you there!
