My interview with Jimmy Breslin
Jimmy Breslin is probably the most famous living New York City tabloid journalist. Breslin is now in his eighties and he is still writing. At the moment he’s writing a book about “Blago,” the rather disgraced former Illinois governor.
Breslin was writing for the New York Daily News when David Berkowitz, the “Son of Sam” serial killer was murdering young women in New York City. Berkowitz sent a series of creepy letters to Breslin. Then he tried to kill Breslin.
I just taped an interview with Breslin. We talked about his new biography of Branch Rickey, the man who broke the color line in major league baseball by signing Jackie Robinson to play for the Brooklyn Dodgers.
We talked about that Son of Sam summer in New York. You can hear the interview by clicking HERE:
