Barbara Streisand with her older brother Sheldon and a friend in 1952.
At this time, she was a student at P.S. 89. At Erasmus Hall High School she joined the Freshman Chorus and Choral Club, which also included Neil Diamond. He recalled, “We were two poor kids in Brooklyn. We hung out in the front of Erasmus High and smoked cigarettes.”

Ed Maverick first burst onto the scene thanks to posting evocative lo-fi love songs to YouTube when he was just 16. Now 25, he’s out on a world tour in support of La Nube En El Jardín, which brought the talented Mexican singer-songwriter back to NYC on Thursday to headline a packed Kings Theatre.

The American Girls Softball League began play 80 years ago today. Based in the New York Metropolitan area, the circuit featured powerhouse teams such as the Linden Arians and the Greenwold/Long Island Jewels (later known as the Arthur Murray Girls). The AGSL stands apart from its contemporaries because it was integrated from the very beginning.
In previous posts, I noted that Yvonne Coker was the first Black woman to play in the league. However, new research reveals that she was actually the second African American woman to join the AGSL.
Marie Roach of Flatbush, Brooklyn, began the 1945 season with the Greenwold/Long Island Jewels. A sophomore at New York’s Hunter College, she had only started playing softball in 1944, but quickly earned a spot as the starting shortfielder for the Jewels in the AGSL’s inaugural season.
By all accounts, Marie played only one season in the league, but her place in history should not be forgotten. Although Yvonne Coker may not have been the first Black player in 1945, she made history as the first African American woman to play in a major women’s baseball league when the AGSL transitioned to the sport in 1949.

Brooklyn Morning
A mundane view from a hotel window, but if you look closely, Brooklyn Academy of Music is there, just beyond Flatbush.
