- Kevin is quoted in an article in the April issue of GQ Magazine (the one with model James King on the cover). The article, found on pages 117 – 120, is entitled “How The Sopranos Helped Me Learn to Love the Garden State” by David Kamp.

That someone could forge art of these uncompromising raw materials, this ‘ultimate reality’…well, it had never occurred to me that it was possible, and I was moved”.
