Do you remember the old Paradise Theater on the Grand Concourse? My father’s bar-mitzvah was there.
No, sorry. Both my parents were Brooklynites. From a time when Brownsville was pronounced ‘Bronzeville’ because that’s how the German population pronounced it. My mom lived in Bronzeville and my dad actually lived on Chauncey Street - where the Honeymooners lived.
I was born in a Trump hospital in Queens. Jamaica.
