There will be a book signing with David Kaufman for his book June 10th at Barnes and Noble on sixth avenue in New York. I will be there to finally meet this remarkable man and writer.

I will be at the book signing but I am shocked at the prices of New York Hotel rooms!! $375 for one night!!! i was there in 2004 and it was pricey but this is wild!!!!

Try "Ye Olde Carlton Arms" on East 25th St if you're feeling 'artful' (means less than upscale). They have a website.

There's a hotel with a "Doris Day room" too, but probably pricier--if I think of the name I'll post it.

Thanks for the tip! I may be staying with friends so that would make it less expensive, Wouldn't miss the signing! Is the Ye Olds Carleton Arms near sixth avenue and the Barnes and Noble bookstore?

Probably less than a dozen blocks. www.carltonarms.com

Thanks for the info, the Hotel sounds interesting. Is it in a good section ot town and near the train station? I don't travel to New York much.

I haven't stayed there. It's just a less-expensive alternative than what you quoted. It wouldn't be a good idea to comment on whether it's in a "good section" or not, either. In NYC you grab a cab or jump on the subway, just like in a movie set in New York.

The book signing is 7:30 pm June 10th at the Barnes and Noble, Greenwich Village 396 Ave Of The Americas at 8th Ave. 212-674-8780.

My Brother who travels alot for his job will be in New York the same time as the book signing so I will stay with him. Glad to be going, wish I had a copy of the Galley of the book. The Galley is before it is edited. Many did receive a copy that helped with the book.

Ray, or anyone, do you know how long the original version was before they edited it? How does one go about purchasing a galley copy of the book? I would love to read the entire version.

Have fun at the book signing. Be sure to have a pic taken and share it on the forum.

The original is, I guestimate, twice as long - and you can't purchasing a galley copy of the book - it's like a dress rehearsal. It's a final check for errors and typos but everying in it will be in the book, plus the photos, which aren't included in the galley.

David said he was going to send me one so I'll be able to review it before publication.

Maybe not twice as long but I know he wrote far more than could fit the number of pages available and probably could have written more.

If you just think about all the Warner Bros archive material he was given on her films, that could probably make a book in itself!

My Dance with Doris I believe was in the Galley but was edited by the publishers I guess and deleted for the final book version. Darn it! And I wanted to bore the world too with my dance story!!!LOL! Not everyday a nobody from Rhode Island gets to dance with a Superstar!

What is that song Dean Martin sings, "You're Nobody 'till Somebody Loves You" ?

Well, we all love you, Ray, so you're Somebody now!

Thats nice Bryan, your a doll!!!! But I am mentioned in the book!! The 1987 DD Covention is covered in great detail. You should have gotten the Galley by now most have, hope it arrives soon so you can tell us about it!

I would like to go to the book signing.....I'm only a swift amtrak ride from Charm City to NY. Maybe Heatherlicious and I could take the train up together.
