The book is filled with never-before-heard stories about Ruskin’s collaborations with music and entertainment giants, politicians, The Rockettes, and even a mobster or two. The second part of “TIPS” features an interview Ruskin recorded with journalist Robin Rupli, initially intended for the Voice of America. This interview delves into Ruskin’s upbringing in Buffalo, NY, and his development as an entertainer. As a singer himself, Ruskin understands the vulnerabilities and strengths of performers, fostering a supportive environment. He shares insights into the highs and lows of live performance, emphasizing empathy, storytelling, and genuine human connection as the essence of the piano bar experience.
