There have been annual celebrations of his work on Jan. 4 ever since, on what has become known as DCBDay.A complete reading of "Actual Air," Berman's only published book of poetry, will happen at 7 p.m. at Congregation Beth Elohim in Park Slope.
The event was initially conceived to take place at a small 50-person venue. Then they booked the 300-seat Union Temple: "We thought that it would be empty, but better not to turn anyone away," Zahedi said, "And then we had too many sales." After moving over 700 tickets, planners changed the location to Congregation Beth Elohim, which has a capacity of around 1,800.
Amy Rose Spiegel, a writer who befriended Berman in the later years of his life, said she was thrilled to be able to take part in the event.
