JK Savoy, author of irreverent Brooklyn fiction
JK Savoy has always learned by doing. He has been a corporate executive, a restaurateur, and — yes, really — a pilot for Robert Vesco, the legendary fugitive financier. Barely old enough to vote, he ran for political office.
Then came the chapter he's least likely to put on a résumé: living as an urchin on the streets of Brooklyn, where he survived by trading loose joints for food and favors — a long way down from a prior life of privilege. That stretch ended when he built the celebrated Brooklyn moving company, Kenny The Mover.
He has written four novels — Somewhere in Brooklyn, And Then There's Lily, Night Bird, and In The Wind — along with the short-story collection Short Stack, and a new novel, As Told By Time, on the way.
By the way — Savoy no longer lives on the street.
