In New York, Bob Nick Shields made his big screen debut in the American classic "Taxi Driver," as Senator Palantine's nervous aide. Then he moved to Hollywood and became a taxi driver. He was born in Harlem and, at six-months-old, talked his family into moving to Westchester County, New York, where he, eventually, lived the story that became The Great Big War. Some of his more memorable jobs include proofreading the Manhattan phone book, being a Copy Boy at Time Magazine and identifying tunes played on the radio, as a Music Monitor at ASCAP. In 2012, he became part of the Blue Coyote Writers Workshop in Los Angeles, where he developed his memoirs as a series of liner notes for music compilations he designed.
