Staten Island is an island full of history and culture, with a wide variety interesting people and places. This is evident in the amazing array of literature, movies and music written about, filmed in, or inspired by Staten Island.  Here at the St. George Library Center, we want to spotlight some of the more interesting and noteworthy materials with a connection to our beloved island.
