Pat Kiernan Jake Dobkin Brooklyn Historical Society
On Wednesday, February 26th as part of Brooklyn Historical Society’s celebrated “Brooklyn on Brooklyn” series, Pat Kiernan will appear in conversation with Gothamist publisher Jake Dobkin to talk – you guessed it – all things Brooklyn!
In what is sure to be an exciting & insightful evening, two of NYC’s most influential and beloved cultural commentators will engage in a freewheeling conversation about the Borough of Kings, as well as respond to audience questions.
In addition to being a native Brooklynite, Jake Dobkin is the author of Gothamist’s wildly popular “Ask a Native New Yorker” series, regularly advising readers on everything from whether to rent or buy, to if a New York accent makes people sound stupid.
Pat Kiernan – longtime NY1 morning news anchor, new WABC radio host, founder of PatsPapers.com and NYC’s best trivia host for corporate events, moved to Brooklyn a couple of years ago after 15 years as a Manhattan resident – prompting then-borough president Marty Markowitz to declare “Pat Kiernan Day” in Brooklyn:
This is sure to be a memorable night, full of great banter between two of Brooklyn’s favorite media personalities. Who knows – maybe there will even be some surprises in store, like the last time Pat Kiernan & Gothamist got together for an event?
