Abstract

Robert Caro, the celebrated author and biographer, is being honored for the 50th anniversary of his book "The Power Broker" with an exhibition at the New-York Historical Society. Caro is currently working on the final book in his series on Lyndon B. Johnson, which delves into topics like the Civil Rights Act and the Vietnam War. His meticulous research and attention to detail have made his books influential in the field of urbanism. "The Power Broker" has gained recognition from figures like Barack Obama and Pete Buttigieg, and its sales continue to rise. Caro's extensive research material, which didn't make it into the book, has been acquired by the New-York Historical Society. The article also mentions Caro's thoughts on President Biden and his decision to preserve his archive for future generations. [Extracted from the article]
