Bruce's Journal

Bruce Slutsky was born in New York City in 1949. I retired six years ago after working as a Science/Engineering Librarian at the New Jersey Institute of Technology in Newark for 25 years. I was married to Karen until she passed away in February 2021. I have a son Lee who is now 35 years old. I am very much interested in the popular music of the 1960s, especially Bob Dylan and the Beatles. I am interested in rock and roll radio. I am an enthusiastic fan of the New York Mets.

My Yearly Visit to the Museum of the City of New York

I just checked my archives and determined that the last time I visited this museum was on January 2, 2017. All museums have permanent and temporary exhibits. The exhibits that I viewed today were:

Martin Luther King in New York City - photos and recordings of his appearances in the 50s and 60s.
Art in the Open - Fifty Years of Public Art in NYC
Beyond Suffrage - A Century of Women in NYC politics. I enjoyed seeing photographs of the late Bella Abzug. Once in the 1980s when I worked at NYPL I saw her walk through Times Square
Activist New York

So far I have visited three museums since the first of the year.
