This fascinating biography reveals the untold story of the legendary "New Yorker" profile writer author of "Joe Gould s Secret" and "Up in the Old Hotel" and unravels the mystery behind one of literary history s greatest disappearing acts.Born and raised in North Carolina, Joseph Mitchell was Southern to the core. But from the 1930s to the 1960s, he was the voice of New York City.
