Book Synopsis

A Guide to the People, Movements, and Moments Born in NYC That Changed the World

New York City isn't just a place-it's a birthplace of ideas, sounds, and movements that shaped humanity. This engaging cultural guide celebrates the remarkable individuals born in NYC's five boroughs who went on to change the world: from Jonas Salk developing the polio vaccine in laboratories funded by his City College education, to hip-hop pioneers transforming music from Bronx block parties, to James Baldwin giving voice to the struggle for justice from his Harlem roots.

Organized by category-including innovators, scientists, music legends, entertainment icons, civil rights activists, artists, athletes, and business leaders-this illustrated guide connects readers to the streets, neighborhoods, and cultural movements that continue to define New York's unparalleled creative spirit.
