History of New York City: Robert Moses: Videos

Poster Daniel Stone writes "This is a 1977 interview with Robert Moses. Moses held a number of positions in New York City and State government from the 1920s to the 1980s. He is known for leading a wide array of often controversial public works project, ranging from highways to the New York World's Fairs. Much of his modern fame and infamy are owed to Robert Caro's 1974 book the Power Broker, which documents Moses's rise and fall.
This interview, which came after the publication of the Power Broker, captures some of the vicissitudes of Moses's personality that Caro writes about; they might otherwise be left to the imagination. It also offers a definitive argument against rolling chairs.
