Jules
Stewart, journalist and author of Gotham Rising, discusses the rise of
New York in the 1930s. He travels the ragged panorama of Manhattan to
talk of the stragglers seeking sanctuary among the skyscrapers.
Depression-era unrest, its politics, media were played out to the
soundtrack of swing, jazz and the movie musical. With sonic interludes
featuring Duke Ellington and live tinklings on the Resonance piano.
