The Bergino Baseball Clubhouse will celebrate the 20th anniversary of The Catcher Was a Spy: The Mysterious Life of Moe Berg — the definitive biography of one of game’s true characters — with a program featuring author Nicholas Dawidoff on Wednesday, Sept. 10, at 7 p.m.

Dawidoff’s other books include, Baseball: A Literary Anthology and The Crowd Sounds Happy: A Story of Love and Madness in an American Family. He also published Collision Low Crossers: A Year Inside the Turbulent World of NFL Football, so the Bergino conversation will include the differences between writing about baseball and football.

Dawidoff, a Pulitzer Prize finalist for The Fly Swatter, is a contributor to The New Yorker, the New York Times Magazine, and Rolling Stone.

Seating is limited so RSVP is strongly suggested. Contact 212-226-7150 or bergino@aol.com.
