On Broadway, men still wear hats

the long version

"You don't have to be involved in a play to be a Broadway enthusiast. On Broadway, Men Still Wear Hats brings to light the lives of some of theater's lesser known contributors: an accountant who gave up number crunching to write Internet theater reviews full-time; an amateur photographer who went from groupie to Tony Award nominator; a Texas ballet dancer turned kosher play seller; a Glasgow high school dropout who became Broadway's favorite restaurateur. Author, journalist, and playwright Robert Simonson follows in the footsteps of Damon Runyon, Joseph Mitchell, and A. J. Liebling as he captures these and other passionate lives lived out along the edges of the New York theater world's white-hot spotlight."--BOOK JACKET.
