I’ve lived in New York for 37 years
I speak English and some Spanish
I am a Writer/Director/Producer/NYC Historian
Hey there! I'm James, your adventurous and curious local host in the one and only New York City. As a native New Yorker who grew up in a multi-generational household, I was steeped in the city's rich culture from an early age. This background fueled my passion for acting, writing, directing, and history. One of my proudest achievements is creating "Burning Gotham," an audio soap opera set in 1835 NYC, which was selected for the 2022 Tribeca Film Festival. I love starting my day with early museum visits, strolling through neighborhoods to admire the architecture, embarking on nature walks, sampling diverse cuisines, and catching live sports events. I know New York's neighborhoods like the back of my hand and am quite knowledgeable about the city's history, food culture, and hidden gems. Let's dive into the heart of NYC together and uncover its many wonders!
