“Arnie Bernstein is a gifted writer, a teacher, and perhaps the most interesting character to emerge from Chicago since Studs Terkel. The Typewriter's Collage, besides its reverence for the quintessential writing tool, also offers unique perspectives on movies, books, and other high- to medium-brow topics.”
Don Akchin, The EndGame

“Nonfiction history author Arnie Bernstein shares his love of books, writing, the Marx Brothers, typewriters, and overlooked stories.”
