The Only Living Pickpocket in New York's Blurbs
About me:

Harry Lehman is an aging pickpocket in the Bronx who doesn't own a cell phone and doesn't trust anything new. Then he lifts a wallet from the wrong young man and walks off with trouble he never wanted. John Turturro, Giancarlo Esposito, Tatiana Maslany and Steve Buscemi star, and Noah Segan wrote and directed. The last old-school thief in a city that went contactless.

Who I'd like to meet:

Anyone who still carries cash and a flip phone.
