I worked in an office in the Revlon building in midtown circa 1998. Dinkins shared an office on the same floor. Very nice man. A throwback to the WW2 generation.
However being a white teenager in his NYC during the late 80s/early 90s was a very dangerous proposition. Especially around the time of Spike Lee's Do the right Thing, which was a great movie but flamed racial tensions for sure. Then the Crown Heights riots...we certainly were looking over our shoulders everywhere we went until St. Rudy came to save the day a few years later!
