She is the author of the novels Two Girls\, Fat and Thin\, and Veronica\, which was nominated for the 2005 National Book Award\, National Critic’s Circle Award\, and L.A. Times Book Award. She is the author of the story collections Bad Behavior and Because They Wanted To\, which was nominated for the PEN/Faulkner in 1998. Bad Behavior\, now a classic\, made critical waves when it was first published\, heralding Gaitskill’s arrival on the literary scene and established her as one of the sharpest\, erotically charged\, and audaciously funny writing talents of contemporary literature. Her newest collection of stories is titled Don’t Cry (2009):Written with her distinctive\, uncanny combination of bluntness and high lyricism\, Don’t Cry takes its place among artworks of great moral seriousness.” [Bomb Magazine] \nMary Gaitskill was born in 1954 in Lexington\, Kentucky. In 1981 Gaitskill graduated from the University of Michigan\, where she won an award for her collection of short fiction The Woman Who Knew Judo and Other Stories.

As many thousands of fans also realize\, JTE backs up that easy style with\nsome hard skills — a beyond-his-years musical wisdom and a guitar/vocal\ntechnique that’s allowed him to wow audiences variously characterized as\n“bluegrass\,” “Americana\,” “blues\,” “folk” and “alternative.” Touring behind his\n2012 Bloodshot Records release Nothing’s\nGonna Change the Way You Feel About Me Now\, Earle returns to Monmouth\nCounty for his first area theater show\, on the Pollak stage at Monmouth.

The press was also prohibited from the site\, but with the help of the Museum of the City of New York and sympathetic city officials\, award-winning photographer Joel Meyerowitz managed to obtain unlimited access. By ingenuity and sheer determination\, he was the only photographer granted unimpeded right of entry into Ground Zero. For 9 months\, during the day and night\, Meyerowitz photographed “the pile\,” as the World Trade Center came to be known\, and the over 800 people a day that were working in it. Influenced by Walker Evans and Dorothea Lange’s work for the Farm Security Administration during the Great Depression\, he knew that if he didn’t make a photographic record of the unprecedented recovery efforts\, “there would be no history.” \nSelected Works from the Joel Meyerowitz Aftermath Series is made possible by the generous gifts from: Mr. and Mrs. Simon Levin\, Mr. and Mrs. Steven Gross\, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Zucker\, Mr. Jeffrey H.
