Nice news to share—The New York Times Book Review will be featuring AMERICAN EVE in Paperback Row in the May 10th issue.



My book, AMERICAN EVE (Riverhead Penguin) is a biography of the first &quot;It&quot; girl Evelyn Nesbit and her role in the crime of the century. An English Prof. at Hofstra University, I love the Gilded Age, the Gothic and Grotesque, pop culture, and photography/film history. I've consulted for A&amp;E, PBS, + the History Channel. Of Basque Irish descent, my roots are in Brooklyn, Bilbao, County Cork and Massapequa (which Jerry Seinfeld says its Native American for&quot;by the mall”) I live in a haunted house on Long Island and hope I don't end up in the touring &quot;Bodies&quot; exhibition any time soon.
