STORY TELLERS IN THE CITY

New York City has long been the source of fascination existing as both a physical space and a space of imagination---limitless.

Every street in Gotham holds tremendous stories----and fascinating story tellers. 

On Sunday, June 8th the city was in a festive frame of mind, starting with the Puerto Rican Parade which filled the streets with thousands of Patriotic sons and daughters from the island of PR.

Maneuvering the flag waving, salsa dancing crowd, I made my way to the press conference for the new musical film "Jersey Boys," directed by legend Clint Eastwood, held at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel.

Then the myNewYorkeye crew was off to cover the annual celebration of the best of Broadway.  Here are a few snapshots and sound bites from our lush day in the city we love, New York.
