McNally Jackson New York, and Paul La Rosa
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
New York is synonymous with the literary world. From book publishing, agents, indie bookshops, and of course, great pizza!
I hope you like this episode as much as I enjoyed interviewing my two guests; Sarah McNally, owner of McNally Jackson Books, and Paul La Rosa, author, journalist, and producer.
Sarah’s openness about being a single, working mother in the business world is honest and touching, so much so that at times her dog wants to break out and join our conversation.
Paul discusses growing up in the projects, living through the 70s in New York, being a journalist at the New York Daily News, and his work at CBS News, mostly as a producer for the newsmagazine “48 Hours.”
Enjoy!
