Diary of a Bartender: Brooklyn to Big Sur, a life at work

Herb Evans raised himself on the streets of Brooklyn. He found away into the wider world through restaurant work. Diary of a Bartender is the story of one man's journey from Brooklyn to the Village, from Third Avenue to Lincoln Center, from Broadway to Malibu, and finally, home to Big Sur.***A restaurant is show business, and the bar is the stage. A bartender is the talent, the stage manager, and the director all rolled into one. Everybody wants to know the bartender.Herb's start in the business came at 80 Warren Street in Manhattan. Each day he'd be sent to a new venue, a new job. He always had work, because he never said no. Delivery boy, sandwich guy, griddle cook, waiter, or bartender. He'd get the gig and take the stage.Herb finished his career at Nepenthe, one of the world's most beautiful sets. What lay between lies within.
