For more than a quarter-century, Kensington, a working-class neighborhood in Philadelphia, was home to the K&A Gang, who traveled from Bar Harbor to Boca Raton breaking into upscale homes. Most of the gang members eventually spent time at Eastern State Penitentiary.
Author Allen Hornblum chronicled the gang in his book, Confessions of a Second Story Man. He will be joined by Jimmy Dolan and Chick Goodroe, former K&A Gang members, who will recount their experiences in the gang and their time at Eastern State Penitentiary.
