The Kevin Murphy story
Kevin Murphy grew up in a rough neighborhood in New York,
Mentioned over and over again in the film, Goodfellas.
By age 15, he was working in an Italian Deli. Worked hard,
kept his mouth shut. Next to the deli was a building with the
windows soaped over so you could not see inside. The two
buildings were connected in back.One day, the owner asked
Kevins mother if he could work late, real late. She said fine,
as long he got home OK.
She left, the owner opened the door to the next building and
Kevin saw it was filled with card tables, craps tables, the works. One hour later, the characters were right out of a Sopranos episode.Its 1969, Im 16 years old. I cleaned their ashtrays, got them their beers and sandwiches. For that, theyre tipping me like you would not believe, $125, $150 a night.
Kevins father drove a truck for the New York Times. His mother had 11 tumors throughout her life. At one point, his father was on strike for 126 days. We were always struggling. Many times, Kevins earnings went to support the family.
