Résumé

Are we allowed to scrutinize public art, even if the public doesn't pay for it? It only took the city of Buffalo 15 minutes to shut it off and five days for Mayor Jimmy Griffin to tear down Billie Lawless' sculpture "Green Lightning" in 1984. It may have had something to do with dancing neon figures that resembled Mr. Peanut. But, to this day, it's unclear if the artist tricked the city or the city acted hastily. Now, forty year later, through interviews, court documents, and press clippings, the story of "Green Lightning" is told.

Biographie de Michael F. Rizzo

Michael F. Rizzo was born in Buffalo, New York. In the 1990s he produced and wrote a weekly television show, COMX-TV about the busy comic book industry. With his co-host, they interviewed hundreds of comic book creators and attended dozens of conventions. His first book, Through The Mayors' Eyes, was finished in 1990 but languished for 15 years. He found self-publishing and released the book in 2005.
After releasing several more self-published books, he published four books with The History Press. Rizzo ran Zippy Delivery, a bike messenger courier business, for seven years, then started The Mob Tours. In 2013 he and his family moved to the Pacific Northwest. In 2015 Rizzo co-hosted Northwest Brew Talk with his wife. They covered the beer industry in Washington state for two years interviewing dozens of brewery entrepreneurs.
That year he released Buffalo Beer, and in 2016 he published Washington Beer. He is a member of International Thriller Writers.
