...first bike ride, the time Adele Kudish tripped over me running through the spray of an open fire hydrant at my 10th birthday party. On late nights, as I walked home from the subway station, I would always look up at the lights scattered through the towers and muse over who was staying late to work, and why, and what people were celebrating up in Windows on the World, which cast an unbroken strip of light from the 107th floor...

Then comes the acclaimed album Time Out of Mind in 1997, a Grammy in 1998 (his first for best album), an Oscar for best song (another first) in 2001 and worldwide celebration and plaudits on the occasion of his 60th birthday, which took place on May 24 of this year.
