Jim Luce Writes on New York City & New Yorkers

Jim Luce’s collection of New York City writings offers an intimate portrait of the city through the lens of both celebrated figures and everyday heroes who shape its character. From the neon-lit streets of 1980s Times Square to the quiet corners of Roosevelt Island, these essays chronicle encounters with cultural luminaries like Yoko Ono and Keith Haring alongside profiles of immigrants, activists, and community leaders who embody the diverse spirit of New York. Whether exploring the hidden stories of East Village diners or documenting the journeys of those who’ve overcome extraordinary odds, Luce’s work captures the human drama that unfolds daily in America’s most dynamic metropolis—revealing how individual lives intersect with the broader tapestry of New York City’s ever-evolving story.
