Cityscape: Just Kids from the Bronx

Award-winning photographer and author Arlene Alda talks about her new book on growing up in the Bronx.

What do Al Pacino, Regis Philbin, Mary Higgins Clark and Colin Powell all have in common? 

They're all Bronx natives.  And all of them are featured in a new book called Just Kids from the Bronx: Telling it the Way it Was: An Oral History.  The book includes the stories of more than 60 native Bronxites who have gone on to make important contributions in nearly every field imaginable, from acting to science to athletics.  Author Arlene Alda, who happens to be the wife of television and film star Alan Alda, is our guest on this edition of Cityscape.
