David Rothenberg enjoyed a thriving career in theater during its golden age, working with icons, including Bette Davis, Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, Lauren Bacall, and John Gielgud. But when he read the play Fortune and Men’s Eyes – a prison drama – it dramatically changed the course of his life.

David recently sat down with Megan Burrow of the Teaneck Suburbanite to talk about his new memoir, FORTUNE IN MY EYES: A Memoir of Broadway Glamour, Social Justice, and Political Passion (Applause Theatre & Cinema Books Trade Paperback, $19.99). In the interview, he reminisces about his childhood in Teaneck and his inspiring journey from Schubert Alley to the Fortune Society’s Castle. You can catch the full article here: Teaneck Suburbanite.

Cool: How Air Conditioning Changed Everything by Salvatore Basile A Library Journal bestselling book

We’ve been big “fans” of Salvatore Basile’s delightful social history on the birth of the air conditioner for some time now. Really! We rate it right up there with Devil in the White City, The Pencil by Henry Petroski, and Salt by Mark Kurlansky.

Well, it seems we’re not alone in our enthusiasm for this quirky book. Library Journal just released their 2015 bestseller list for engineering and technology titles, and COOL: How Air Conditioning Changed Everything is sitting pretty at #7. Congrats, Sal!

Early buzz for Meagan Brothers’ LGBT YA novel, WEIRD GIRL & WHAT’S HIS NAME (October 2015)

Weird Girl Book Cover

Three Rooms Press will publish Meagan Brothers’ new LGBT YA novel, WEIRD GIRL AND WHAT’S HIS NAME, this October 2015, and this quirky book is already receiving great early reviews. Kirkus Reviews weighed in this week:

In a small town in North Carolina, a close friendship between two eccentric high schoolers breaks apart, leaving a rift…Rory narrates the first half of the book and Lula, the second, and both voices are crisply and intimately drawn. Minor characters are equally vibrant, particularly Walter, Lula’s rugged but kind stepfather, and Seth, the school’s unexpectedly wholesome and gentle quarterback. The X-Files, the details of which both Lula and Rory lovingly recount, provides a strong common language and set of symbols throughout.

Carefully and subtly imagined.

Catch the full review here: Kirkus Reviews Weird Girl and What’s His Name.

Helen Nash, Renowned Kosher Cookbook Author, Launches New Website

Helen Nash, the author of three beloved, classic kosher cookbooks – Kosher Cuisine, Helen Nash’s Kosher Kitchen, and most recently the 2012 Helen Nash’s New Kosher Cuisine: Healthy, Simple, and Stylish – has launched the website, Kitchenwise by Helen Nash (www.kitchenwisehn.com).  The website will be devoted to gourmet kosher cooking that is healthy, simple and easy to prepare.

Helen has lived for over 65 years in New York City, where she has perfected her kosher culinary art. She studied with the masters of the day and has given numerous cooking demonstrations around the country.  An invitation to her home is highly coveted, not only for the delicious kosher cuisine, but also for the cultured ambiance.

“My philosophy is simple,” Nash explains.  “Eating well on a daily basis requires good planning, portion control and a focus on nutrition.  My main rule for both cooking and eating is to use what is best and freshest at the market.  Whether it’s fish, vegetables, fruit or meat, the better your ingredients the better your results.”

Now Helen invites her devoted fans to her new website to continue to learn and enjoy home-cooked, highly appealing and healthy kosher food.  Novice as well as experienced cooks can learn from Helen and will find much to delight in among her imaginative, delicious dishes.

New recipes for June include a light, summer Leek Spinach Soup, an easy and delicious Broiled Branzino, and classic chocolate chip cookies.

Visit www.Kitchenwisehn.com every month for new recipes and ideas about successful entertaining.
