Joe Bogdos, UncommonGoods A/P Specialist

My hometown…
New York City.

I’m passionate about…
’60s underground rock and ’70s Jamaican dub.

When I’m not working, I’m probably…
Hanging out with my three-year-old son.

Something that always makes me laugh…
Chris Elliott‘s appearances on early Letterman.

Something that always relaxes me is…
Naps (when I’m able to take them, which is hardly ever).

My guilty pleasure is…
I enjoy watching the kids’ show Peppa Pig just as much as my son does, if not more.

My favorite place to eat in NYC is…
The Bounty in Greenpoint. It’s a bistro-type place that specializes in seafood, but also has great burgers and grilled chicken, etc.

An uncommon fact about me…
I was once babysat by the Hells Angels.

    Hi I am trying to get in touch with Joe Bogdos. Our fathers were roommates at Berkeley and good friends, both lived in New York for many years.

    My father bought some of Harry Bogdos’ early artworks and I have several framed pieces in storage in San Diego. I’d like Joe to have them.

    I lost everything the house in CA, etc some years ago and now live in Panama in the jungle near the beach and don’t have an appropriate place for the art that once hung in my home. They have been in storage in San Diego for 8 years. I go in November to vacate that unit. I would like to give Joe hos father’s artwork.

    My name is Alexis Connelly
