In 2001, anthropology professor Robert Leonard began moonlighting as a cabdriver; 'Yellow Cab' is a portrait of the city he found as he drove the streets of night time Albuquerque, picking up everyone from business people and drunken college kids to hookers and drug dealers. In this mixed bag of rich vignettes and interludes of poetry, Leonard offers sharp insights into the workings of the hidden world of an American city after dark.
