Miami Beach Memories: A Nostalgic Chronicle of Days Gone by

Miami Beach Memories: AÂ Nostalgic Chronicle of Days Gone ByÂ is an oral history of the people and events that shaped this tropicalÂ islandÂ from the 1920s through the 1960s. To create this engaging and accessible volume, Biondi interviewed 101 residents, from maids and taxi drivers to burlesque strippers,Â convicted criminals, and famous actors and comedians. Their memories formÂ a vivid portrait of life in the island's "Golden Era," one marked by incredible cultural and social changes. In addition, hundreds of black-and-white archival photos, some by famous celebrity photographer Ray Fisher,Â bring these voices and Miami Beach's history to life.
