You might not know his name, but film and TV actor Michael Badalucco has an undeniably recognizable face as the go-to person to play a cop (see: Juice, Clockers, One Fine Day) on the big screen. His most notable and Emmy Award-winning role, however, was as lawyer Jimmy Berluti on ABC’s The Practice.
It only makes sense that in his spare time, this native of Midwood takes pleasure in a good old-fashioned mystery novel.
Take a look at some of Michael’s book recommendations:
Books for Kids
Bobbsey Twins: The Secret at the Seashore by Laura Lee Hope
Boys are Dogs by (fellow Brooklynite) Leslie Margolis
Clarice Bean, Don’t Look Now by Lauren Child
The Little Red Lighthouse and the Great Gray Bridge by Hildegarde H. Swift and Lynd Ward
The 6th Grade Nickname Game by Gordon Korman
Books for Adults
Fork in the Road by Denis Hamill
Inspector Montalbano Mysteries (Michael recommends all of them) by Andrea Camilleri
The Keep by Jennifer Egan
Long For This World: A Novel by Sonya Chung
