Binnie on Broadway! (well, almost....)


On Wednesday, August 25, I'll be co-hosting a talkback with NYTimes Ethicist Randy Cohen about his provocative play "The Punishing Blow" at the Clurman Theatre! It's a very cool one man show w/Seth Duerr as an anti-Semitic college professor who must contend with the achievements of British bare-knuckle boxer Daniel Mendoza. Please come and be a part of the discussion about this intriguing and unique play.

THE MOVIE IS OUT!!!

I am thrilled to present the book video trailer for "Blows to the Head: How Boxing Changed My Mind" -- designer Bill Brown of Madison, CT, hit the ground running and produced a marvelous, concise, moving 2 minute trailer. I am so grateful to him; I hope you will visit Bill's website and send him praise! And if you are so inclined, send the YouTube around so that as many people can see it as possible. A little bit of that "internet excitement!!"
