Former NYC Public Advocate Mark Green Tells All

The Brian Lehrer Show | May 5, 2016

Mark Green, a former NYC public advocate, host of the syndicated weekend radio show "Both Sides Now" and the author of Bright, Infinite Future: A Generational Memoir on the Progressive Rise (St. Martin's Press, 2016), traces the arc of his public service career from 1970 working for Ralph Nader to today's campaigns.

Green says that he committed to being self-critical and honest in his memoir, especially about his failed mayoral run against Michael Bloomberg in 2001 and the election day that coincided with September 11th.
