Mike Stanton to discuss new Marciano book

Marciano, the greatest heavyweight champion of all time, was the man who never lost a professional fight. He had a record of 49-0. Just as he did with Buddy Cianci and The Prince of Providence, Stanton brings a legend to life, giving readers both a revelatory biography and irresistible local and social history. Stanton, an associate professor of journalism at the University of Connecticut, previously headed the investigative team at the Providence Journal, where he shared a Pulitzer Prize.

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
