Sources of film noir.

Kurt Brokaw is someone I know from years of Lincoln Center press screenings - the NYFF, Rendez-Vous, New Directors/New Films. He's always there for every one and usually the first to arrive. Back in the day he was an ad man on Mad. Ave. for years and now for many years has een an associate teaching professor at The New School. He also teaches film noir and early lesbian fiction at the 92nd Street Y. He says he has attended the New York Film Festival every year since it began. Here he is interviewed practicing a hobby - selling off on weekends some of his collection of rare noir and pulp paperbacks at a table on Broadway and 88th Street. Kurt's film festival reviews appear on the Independent (http://independent-magazine.org/authors/kurt-brokaw/).
