A professional artist and writer, he wrote with a sharp eye for city life and modern history. His work on post-9/11 Manhattan grew out of years of observing how ordinary people lived through fear, war, and daily change.

by C. C. Long
C. C. Long is described by his Amazon author page as a professional artist and writer with more than 20 years of experience. That page also identifies him as Charles Long.
His best-known book appears to be Our Man in Manhattan, a journal-like account of life in New York after the September 11 attacks and during the years leading into the Iraq War. In the book description, he explains that he returned to Manhattan from London in September 2000 and began writing out of the atmosphere of anxiety, rumor, and upheaval that followed.
An older source also shows a different C. C. Long credited as the author of educational works including Home Geography for Primary Grades. Because the name appears in more than one context, the details above are limited to the contemporary writer profile that could be confirmed with confidence.
