Today on Breakfast-of-Candidates: Bob Zuckerman

Today on Breakfast-of-Candidates OTBKB's interview/profile series about the city council candidates in the 39th and the 33rd districts in Brooklyn: Bob Zuckerman.

A long-time politico, Bob is currently executive director of the Gowanus Canal Community Development Corporation and  Gowanus Canal Conservancy.  He remembers the night Richard Nixon was elected in  1968 (he was 7-years-old) and one of his heroes is Harvey Milk.

Tomorrow: It's Brad Lander's turn. He's the intellectual of the group with two master's degrees and a BA from the University of Chicago. He's made his mark running community organizations like the Fifth Avenue Committee and Pratt Center for Community Development, advocating for affordable housing and community sustainability.

And in case you missed it, take a look at Breakfast-of-Candidates: Gary Reilly. At 34 he's not quite the youngest of the candidates (John Heyer beats him on that score) but he's plenty wet behind the ears and full of enthusiasm for what he's set out to do.
