Statement:
Youngstown:
the early years
I know Youngstown,
Ohio. I grew up there. During my youth in the 60's Ytown was
in its heyday. Alive with city traffic Youngstown's sprawling
and bustling downtown consisted of Market Street commerce,
restaurants, clubs, high rise doctors offices and downtown
shopping- even it's own airport. It was the time of Cadillacs
and high heels. Not too far away on the other side of Mahoning
River the boom of the steel mills made the city churn economically
and continuously. I remember looking at the night sky over
the steel mills with wonder. The steel mill stacks released
constant fire, smoke and fumes. Grey skies were the norm even
during summer. I didn't really know anything different existed.
This series takes place during the 60's. My early years and
memories from a kid's perspective.
