Favorite Book: "The Jewish Boxers' Hall of Fame" by Ken Blady

"I met Benny Leonard up in Grupps Gym. The best Jewish fighter there was. My father used to fly pidgeons in the area, up on the roof-top to Grupps. Anyway, this was an interesting book. It's packed with fascinating revelations and amusing anecdotes."
