Tara Clancy's Memoir Of A Fifth-Generation New Yorker And Third-Generation Bartender

WAMC Northeast Public Radio | By Joe Donahue
Published December 5, 2016 at 11:34 AM EST
Book Cover - The Clancys of Queens

Tara Clancy was raised in three wildly divergent homes: a converted boat shed in working class Queens, a geriatric commune of feisty, Brooklyn-born Italians, and a sprawling Hamptons estate she visited every other weekend.

This childhood triptych comes to life in her new memoir, The Clancys of Queens.
