[URBANTH-L]Reader on the Anthropology of Homelessness

[Elanah Uretsky]

You  might want to try getting in touch with Kim Hopper at Columbia.  
Kim has done extensive research on homelessness in NY, which he also  
wrote about in his book Reckoning with Homelessness (Cornell  
University Press 2003).

Best,
Elanah Uretsky
