Here’s Why a New York City Lobster Roll (With Fries!) Costs $32New York City has not always been a lobster roll town. She and her husband, Ralph, started out by selling whole lobsters out of a building they had bought in Red Hook, Brooklyn. The pandemic upended everything at the Red Hook Lobster Pound. Prices surged across the board, and by mid-2022, Ms. Povich felt she had no choice but to raise the price of her signature item, a lobster roll and fries.

Alice Travis was a seasoned reporter when she auditioned in 1975 for the ABC show that would become “Good Morning America.”Travis, who was then 32, had already co-hosted two major-market news shows: “Panorama” (alongside Maury Povich), in Washington D.C., and “AM New York.” The Black-owned weekly newspaper New York Amsterdam News once described her as “one of the brightest and brainiest of the undiscovered teevee personalities.”So she was unprepared for what she said a network executive told her after the audition. “‘Quite frankly your color is not to your advantage,’” Travis recounted over lunch in Manhattan this past summer. “Shocking statements, but after a while they no longer shocked.”Travis was among the first wave of Black television newswomen hired nationwide, part of an early effort to diversify American newsrooms in the wake of the protests and racial conflicts of the 1960s. While her rejection by the ABC morning show was painful, what she did next was groundbreaking: She became the first Black woman to host her own national talk show.

☆ 500 Miles of Father-Son Bonding
  + stars: | 2023-05-09 | by ( Gregory Cowles | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
It’s a good setup for a travel memoir, ripe with opportunities to revisit the past and measure his own faded youth against the full flourishing of his son’s young adulthood. And McCarthy — who wrote about his Brat Pack years in a previous memoir and has established a respectable second career as a travel writer — makes the most of them. He muses about his failed marriage to Sam’s mother, and his current marriage to the mother of his two younger children. Raised Catholic, he duly notes the pilgrimage’s churchly roots but evinces little religious impulse himself. But it makes Sam a singularly frustrating travel companion at times, for his father as much as the reader.
