Otto Penzler

from The Elmore Leonard Podcast

Alex gets an audience with the one and only Otto Penzler, a dear friend of Elmore's and the proprietor of The Mysterious Bookshop in New York City - the oldest mystery specialist book store in America. Having been featured in Comfort to the Enemy and Up In Honey's Room, Otto is also the first character of Elmore's to join ust on the podcast. Otto tells us about getting to know Elmore, the importance of not showing off all that you know, and why it's good to be the first to ask. This episode is dedicated to Raffles, the German Shepherd. https://www.mysteriousbookshop.com Hosted By: Judd Rubin and Alex Leonard Music by: Greg Ahee Produced and Edited by: Judd Rubin Executive Producer: Peter Leonard Let's talk: www.elmoreleonardofficial.com X: @elmorepodcast IG: @ElmoreLeonardInc [email protected]
