The Life and Times of Stephen Bruno, Author and Park Avenue Doorman

from All Of It with Alison Stewart · host WNYC

Before he became a New York City doorman, Stephen Bruno's story begins in the Bronx. Growing up as an academically gifted kid, Bruno's path didn't necessarily go as planned. In his new memoir, Building Material: The Memoir of a Park Avenue Doorman, Bruno describes how he went from being broke and flunking out of college to landing a prestigious doorman job for a fancy Park Avenue building. He also shares stories about New York that only doormen might get to witness. Bruno, now an author as well as still a doorman on Park Avenue, is with us to discuss his story.
