''New York After Dark'' Review

Roger Padilha and Mauricio Padilha are brothers who run MAO Public Relations, a fashion PR and events production company. They are authors, too, and their latest is Dustin Pittman: New York After Dark. 

While the focus is primarily on city nightlife in the seventies and eighties, some jobs were done earlier in the day, and there's also a handful of Paris fashion shoots. 

The venues range from The Mudd Club to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, with subjects such as David Johansen (who penned the foreword); Bryan Ferry; Debbie Harry; Iggy Pop; Madonna (pre-fame); Bianca Jagger; and Calvin Klein. And there are quite a few identified guests. 

That's the case with a sampling of Dustin's Woodstock festival photos--and a disappointment with no headliners. Yet the photographer claims he got to see Jimi Hendrix up close. 

Regardless of who he's working with, the former WWD employee thinks love tends to be his theme, with various couples embracing (even one 'trouple' at Studio 54). Dustin adds that he loves all of his works, be it a protest march, a presidential inauguration, or plain old party.
