In September, 2015 President Barack Obama informed The Forward, in
a historic interview, of his shock at learning of the closing of
his favorite NYC Bagel eatery, H&H Bagels, in January of 2012.
While the President was shocked by the closing of the world's most
famous, and recognizable, bagel brand, what was truly shocking were
the underlying facts and circumstances surrounding the closing.
While most people knew H&H as the iconic, Upper West Side Bagel
Shop where the lines rounded the block, where celebrities loved to
frequent, and where one of the most popular Seinfeld television
episodes was created, few people knew about the drama and decadence
that existed behind the scenes of this NYC landmark. The Rise and
Fall of H&H Bagels takes you on a journey that starts with the
fulfillment of the American Dream and ends in contested, five year
Bankruptcy. This is the outrageous, true, story of a man who defied
the odds and became an American legend, and then defied logic and
the law by dismantling his beloved Empire. The story of H&H
Bagels is not only the story of the rise and fall of a thriving
American business, it is a story of intrigue, economics,
corruption, and resiliency, as told, with humor, from the
perspective of the one man who lived through it all-its National
Business Manager and right hand to the man at the top of the
H&H Empire, Helmer Toro.
