I’m pleased to report that I’ve got a piece in the upcoming April issue of Sideshow Gazette. In the article I had the privilege of interviewing Mr. David Geary (late of the New York Times), whose father was a carnival publicist and advance man affiliated with the World of Mirth shows, billed as “the Largest Midway on Earth”. It was something of a historical “get”, though you won’t find that acknowledged on the cover or in the headline, nor will you find a nice visual like this one, which it took me all of two seconds to find on the internet. Be that as it may, I assure you it’s worth the read for anyone interested in carnival life during the ’40s, ’50s, and early ’60s, and mentions encounters with several well known sideshow stars of the classic era.
