Pulitzer Prize and Emmy Award-winning mob historian Anthony M. Destefano will discuss his new book, Broadway Butterfly -- Vivian Gordon: The Lady Gangster of Jazz Age New York.  Learn about Jazz Age con woman, escort, speakeasy owner, and racketeer Vivian Gordon, whose sensational murder – and the damning list of powerful politicos, gangsters, and businessmen left behind in her diary - captivated Prohibition-era New York, obsessed its then-governor Franklin Delano Roosevelt, ensnared its mayor, and exposed the city’s dark underbelly of police corruption. DeStefano is a bestselling true crime author and national expert on the American Mafia, who has published 10 books on the subject.  He is also an award-winning journalist, covering legal affairs and law enforcement in New York for Newsday, where he received a Pulitzer Prize and an Emmy for his coverage of the Gilgo Beach serial killings.
