BWP #6: On this episode of the Brooklyn Works Project, we have a thought-provoking conversation with Joan Marans Dim, author of Lady Liberty: An Illustrated History of America's Most Storied Woman, about the cyclic parallels of immigration in America, the link between bridge development and the growth of New York City, and the key to being a successful writer.  We dive into all of this and more with Joan, a writer born and raised in NYC who has worn many hats over her 30-year career including essayist, novelist, historian, ghostwriter and public relations strategist. Joan’s latest book is a history exploring the intricacies surrounding the Statue of Liberty called Lady Liberty: An Illustrated History of America's Most Storied Woman.
