"Under the Williamsburg Bridge" is the true story of a man who was one of the founding members of the American Mafia and his two sons. His mobster son worked with the likes of Lucky Luciano, Dutch Schultz, and Bugsy Siegel, and was a decorated war hero; his other son opted to forsake the family business for a career in criminal law.
From the early days of the Mafia, to the jungles of Burma with Merrill's Marauders during World War II, to the strange world of America's Asian criminal underworld, Under the Williamsburg Bridge tells the story of three generations of a unique American family.
