Author and Storyteller Thomas R. Pryor to Perform CITY BOY at Ryan's Daughter

Thomas R. Pryor brings "CITY BOY" - tales from his bittersweet, working class 1960's upbringing - to Ryan's Daughter in his native Yorkville on Manhattan's Upper East Side on Saturday, November 19, 2016 at 7:00pm. No cover, no minimum, drink specials available and Ryan's is located at 350 E. 85th Street (between First and Second Avenues). Phone: (212) 628-2613.

Based on his acclaimed 2014 memoir, I Hate the Dallas Cowboys - tales of a scrappy New York boyhood (YBK Publishers), "City Boy" is a love letter to NYC street life in the 1960s when Devil Dogs were a nickel, Spaldeens flew,and the capture game, Ringalario, let boys put their arms around girls for the first time. And, like other fathers, Tommy's took him to saloons, all day, and no one thought it was strange. Think TV's "The Wonder Years" ~ just add taverns, subways and Checker cabs. Pryor reads an excerpt from his memoir here.

Pryor's work has appeared in such outlets as The New York Times, This American Life, PBS, NBC and A Prairie Home Companion. For information on his storytelling, writing and photography projects, including his photo book, River To River: New York Scenes From a Bicycle, go to yorkvillestoopstonuts.blogspot.com.

The event takes place in Ryan's second floor performance space. Take the #4, #5 or #6 subway to 86th Street. For additional information, go to ryansdaughter.nyc.
