Bryant Park

Join us at Bryant Park's Reading Room on Wednesday, September 9, from 7:00–8:00 PM for a special nonfiction conversation featuring historian and author David Conrad-Pérez and his book, Fire in the Heart of the City. The book revisits the aftermath of the 1911 Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire, exploring the fierce conflict between New York’s wealthy elite and labor activists over who should lead the city’s response to its deadliest disaster at the time. Through the unlikely clash between New York Times publisher Adolph Ochs and labor organizer Rose Schneiderman, Conrad-Pérez examines how tragedy, philanthropy, labor rights, and social reform shaped the origins of modern American charity. A historian and former journalist, Conrad-Pérez is research director at the Center for Media &amp; Social Impact at American University and has written for The New York Times, Reuters, and Columbia Journalism Review.

Tiffany Fulton, founder and executive director of Silent Voices United Inc., is a three-time Amazon bestselling author who writes under the pen name Harlem Holiday. Her purposeful stories uplift children, families and communities.
Harlem has always produced powerful storytellers, and Tiffany Fulton is a literary voice readers should know. A community advocate, nonprofit leader and three-time Amazon bestselling author, Fulton has spent decades ensuring that overlooked voices are heard.
As the founder and executive director of Silent Voices United Inc., she has dedicated her life to literacy, youth development, advocacy and community empowerment. Tiffany Fulton writes under the pen name Harlem Holiday, extending that mission through books that entertain, educate, preserve history and inspire change.
Her growing collection crosses genres, from compelling adult fiction and revealing nonfiction to meaningful children’s books centered on hope, family, culture and community. Her writing reflects the perspective of someone who has not simply observed life’s struggles and triumphs but has worked directly alongside the people and communities experiencing them.
Her adult titles include Fallen Petals: The Deception, the Deceit, and the Damned, a powerful work of fiction exploring secrecy, trauma, courage and survival, and The Harlem Plug: The Richard “Fritz” Simmons Story, a nonfiction account grounded in Harlem history, extensive research and personal testimony.
Today, Harlem Holiday is placing a special focus on children’s literature.
Among her most meaningful works is Harlem’s Tale of Hope: The Legacy of William Donnell Porter. Endorsed by the National Crime Prevention Council, the book addresses child safety, community unity and the enduring power of hope. It encourages families to protect children, stand together during times of crisis and help create safer communities.
Harlem Holiday is also the creator of the festive children’s series ’Twas More Than Just a Little… Through warm storytelling and colorful adventures, the series introduces young readers to the deeper meaning of holidays while celebrating love, generosity, heritage and togetherness.
The collection includes stories centered on Christmas, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Kwanzaa. Each book offers more than a seasonal celebration—it gives children an opportunity to learn, imagine and connect with the traditions that bring families and communities together.
The series is expected to grow with the planned release of Harlem Holiday’s Hanukkah children’s book, continuing her commitment to inclusive storytelling that helps young readers appreciate different cultures, traditions and celebrations.
Becoming a three-time Amazon bestselling author is an impressive achievement, but Fulton’s impact reaches far beyond rankings. Her success demonstrates what can happen when lived experience, community service and creative purpose come together.
For Fulton, writing and advocacy are not separate pursuits. They are two expressions of the same mission. Through Silent Voices United Inc., she helps people find their voices. Through Harlem Holiday, she transforms those voices into stories that can travel across neighborhoods, generations and cultures.
Her message is clear: books can do more than entertain. They can preserve history, teach safety, strengthen identity, inspire hope and remind readers that their lives and experiences matter.
A portion of book proceeds supports the work of Silent Voices United Inc., helping the organization continue serving children, families and underserved communities. Visit <a href="https://silentvoicesunitedinc.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">SilentVoicesUnitedInc.org</a> and explore the Impact Page to see the difference this work is making.
Harlem Holiday’s books are available through Amazon, Barnes &amp; Noble and other booksellers wherever books are sold. Readers may also search for or request her titles through their local public libraries.
Whether she is organizing community programs, distributing books, advocating for underserved residents or developing her next story, Tiffany Fulton continues to turn silent voices into powerful stories—and powerful stories into lasting change.
Discover the author. Read the stories. Support the mission. This is one Harlem literary gem you do not want to overlook.

Expert-led lectures in bars and creative spaces across NYC.
💡A smarter night out in NYC—fascinating speakers, craft beer, and real conversation. 💡Here's what to look forward to during this groundbreaking lecture:
When the Civil War ended, the United States faced an enormous question: What kind of country would it become? Congressman Thaddeus Stevens believed the nation could not simply rebuild what had existed before the war. Instead, he called for radical changes to dismantle the South's old social and economic system, protect the rights of formerly enslaved people, and create a country built on a foundation of legal equality. This talk explores Stevens' bold vision for Reconstruction, the fierce opposition he faced, and why the questions he raised about freedom, justice, and democracy remain just as relevant today.
Stephanie Townrow is the Director of Interpretation and Exhibitions at the Thaddeus Stevens &amp; Lydia Hamilton Smith Center for History and Democracy, a new museum she has had the privilege to build from the ground-up. A Ph.D. candidate in American history at the University of Delaware, she specializes in bringing the past to life through storytelling, artifacts, and the occasional deep dive down a historical rabbit hole. She has spent the last several years immersed in the world of Thaddeus Stevens and Lydia Hamilton Smith—and promises that Stevens was far more interesting (and important) than most history textbooks let on. She's excited to share some of the surprising stories behind one of America's most fascinating and fearless politicians.
We'll explore:
<ul><li>The reconstruction of the United States post Civil War</li><li>The radical changes that occured during this period which have led to the state of the country we live in today</li><li>The role that Thaddeus Stevens played in shaping our nation</li></ul>
This might be for you if you...
<ul><li>Are curious about unknown figures in our shared history</li><li>Are intrigued by the steps taken by the government during the Reconstruction era that have directly impacted where the US is today</li><li>Enjoy lecture-based and conversation-focused events of any kind — think Ted Talks in bars, Lectures on Tap, or micro learning meets dinner party</li><li>Want to switch up your usual weeknight. Why not make it interesting? 🤓<a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-wisdom-bar-freedom-in-the-era-of-reconstruction-thaddeus-stevens-tickets-1997059700323" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Tickets!</a></li></ul>

NEW YORK – July 9, 2026 — After spending more than two decades helping others discover their authentic selves as a psychotherapist, performer and educator Earl Grey (they/them), a genderqueer artist, is stepping into the spotlight to share their own story.
