DAN RATTINER

Award-winning writer and publisher of Dan's Papers, DAN RATTINER, will be speaking about and signing his new book, In The Hamptons.

Long before the Hamptons became famous for its posh parties, paparazzi, and glitterati, it was a sleepy backwater of fishing villages and potato farms, literary luminaries and local eccentrics. As the editor and publisher of the area's popular free newspaper, Dan's Papers, Dan Rattiner, has been covering the daily triumphs, community intrigues, and larger-than-life personalities for nearly fifty years.

A colorful insider's account of life, love, scandal, and celebrity, In the Hamptons is an intimate portrait of a place and the people who formed and transformed it, from former residents like Andy Warhol and Willem de Kooning to colorful locals like bar owner Bobby Van to present-day stars like Bianca Jagger and Billy Joel.
