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.

Dylan Photo Exhibition, Photos of Subway Graffiti, and Hudson Yards
On April 21 I posted in this journal that I became aware of an exhibition of photographs of Bob Dylan taken by Ted Russell from 1961-64. Today we finally made it to the Steven Kasher Gallery on West 26th Street. It was a special treat for Lee since he saw for the first time the 34th Street-Hudson Yards station on the #7 line. We saw that exhibit but were surprised to see another display of photographs of subway graffiti by Martha Cooper. Back in the 1970s, the subway yards were open and graffiti inside and outside subway cars was extensive. From there we visited a few other art galleries in the area. We then walked on the Highline back to the Hudson Yards subway station.
