==Life and work==
Marshall Berman was born in New York City in 1940, and spent his childhood in Tremont, then a predominately Jewish neighborhood of the South Bronx. His parents Betty and Murray Berman (both children of Jewish Eastern European immigrants) owned the Betmar Tag and Label Company. His father died of a heart attack at age 48 in the autumn of 1955, shortly after the family had moved to the Kingsbridge neighborhood of the Bronx. Berman attended the Bronx High School of Science, and was an alumnus of Columbia University, BLitt from Oxford University where he was a student of Isaiah Berlin. Berman completed his Ph.D. at Harvard University in 1968.〔https://nplusonemag.com/online-only/online-only/on-marshall-berman/〕 He began working at City College in 1968 where he taught until his death. He was on the editorial board of ''Dissent'' and a regular contributor to ''The Nation'', ''The New York Times Book Review'', ''Bennington Review'', ''New Left Review'', ''New Politics'' and the ''Voice Literary Supplement''.
In ''Adventures in Marxism'', Berman tells of how, while a Columbia University student in 1959, the chance discovery of Karl Marx's ''Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts of 1844'' proved a revelation and inspiration, and became the foundation for all his future work. This personal tone pervades his work, linking historical trends with individual observations and inflections from a particular situation. Berman is best known for his book ''All That Is Solid Melts Into Air: The Experience Of Modernity''. Some of his other books include ''The Politics of Authenticity'', ''Adventures in Marxism'', ''On the Town: A Hundred Years of Spectacle in Times Square'' (2006). His final publication was the "Introduction" to the Penguin Classics edition of The Communist Manifesto. Also in the 2000s, Berman co-edited (with Brian Berger) an anthology, ''New York Calling: From Blackout To Bloomberg'', for which he wrote the introductory essay. Berman also was a participant in Ric Burns' landmark 8-part documentary titled ''New York''.
He died on September 11, 2013 of a heart attack.〔(In memoriam: Marshall Berman, 1940-2013 )〕 According to friend and fellow author Todd Gitlin, Berman suffered the heart attack while eating at one of his favorite Upper West Side diners, the Metro Diner.
