Local author’s debut novel is a thriller
By MELISSA BERMAN mberman@liherald.com
For eight years, Woodmere resident J.D. Lanter carried the same story with her.
It followed her through classrooms, theater productions, countless rewrites and even a twoyear sabbatical from teaching English and theater at the Hebrew Academy of the Five Towns and Rockaway High School in Cedarhurst. On June 16, that story finally became reality when her debut novel, “After All I’ve Done For You,” was published.
The psychological thriller, now available on Amazon and at jdlanter. com, is the culmination of nearly a decade of work, dozens of manuscript revisions and years of rejection before Lanter decided to publish the novel herself.
“I was pregnant with this book for probably eight years,” Lanter, 57, said. “It was a very arduous labor.”
The novel follows vet -
eran English teacher Jamie Berringer, who accepts what appears to be the opportunity of a lifetime at the prestigious Affinity Preparatory School. Instead she finds herself trapped in an increasingly disturbing mystery, as anonymous messages, surveillance technology and hidden secrets threaten to unravel her life.
The premise grew directly from Lanter’s own career as an English teacher and her fascination — and concern — with the rapid expansion of technology in the classroom.
“I became very involved with educational technology over a decade ago,” she said. “I loved it. It organized everything. Students submitted assignments online; it made teaching easier. But then I had this chilling realization.”
It came when she began thinking about how much information online learning platforms were collecting.
“The idea [for the novel] was to have a teacher in a school where the technology outpaces the teacher,” Lanter said. “She thinks she’s getting this incredible opportunity, but somebody starts manipulating her life in little ways that build and build until she’s basically being stalked by the school.”
Although the concept came quickly, the completed book did not.
Two years ago, Lanter made what she calls one of the biggest decisions of her life, taking a sabbatical from teaching to devote herself to writing and directing theater in her home in a black box theater.
“I said, ‘I’m going to finish this book,’” she said. “I’m going to take two years, start from the first page, go through every note and just sit here and write this book.”
The effort resulted in financial sacrifices, but she viewed it as an investment in herself. “Teaching had to go,” she said.
NEW YORK’S WRONGEST RUNNING COMEDY!











“That also meant the income had to go. But I thought, maybe this is part two of my life.
Maybe this is the reinvention. I’ve always dreamed of being a storyteller.”
That dream nearly ended several times.
Lanter estimated that she revised the manuscript nearly 50 times, and queried dozens of literary agents before ultimately deciding to selfpublish. “It was death by a thousand paper cuts,” she said. “Most of the queries weren’t even read.”
Still, the responses she received encouraged her. One literary agent told her, “You’re a good writer and the book is really good, but I don’t know how to sell it.” Another developmental editor assured her the manuscript wasn’t the problem.
“She said, ‘I can tell you what’s wrong with publishing right now, but I can’t tell you what’s wrong with your book,’” Lanter recalled. “That gave me the confidence to keep going.”
Lanter handled much of the publishing process herself, designing the cover, formatting the manuscript and coordinating production. “I became a one-woman publishing company,” she said. “Publicist, marketer, designer, formatter — everything.”
The timing added another challenge. She completed much of the final editing while recovering from surgery.

“I should have been resting,” she said. “Instead, I was formatting and editing. It was so dumb, but I couldn’t stop.”

on it for eight years.
Perhaps most satisfying was proving something to herself. “I set a goal, and I met the goal,” she said. “In a world where you have so little control over so many things, being able to envision something and actually bring it to life is incredibly validating.”
Amazon reviewer Alyssa Gilbert called the novel impossible to put down, writing, “I wish I could read it again for the very first time,” and adding that she “would read anything this author ever writes, including the syllabus to her junior English class.”
When the novel officially launched last month, her emotions, Lanter said, were difficult to describe. “I’m happy that it’s not just a paperweight,” she said. “It was something that existed only in my mind, and now it’s a physical book. That’s magical.”








She compared the experience to directing a play. “You have this vision that’s imaginary, and then it becomes its own entity,” she said. “There’s so much magic in that process.”
Another Amazon reviewer Eva Finkelstein described it as “an engaging, well-written” thriller that “keeps you on the edge of your seat,” adding that “the author’s passion and thoughtfulness shine through on every page.”
For Lanter, those reviews make the years of work worthwhile.
“At some point you have to stop editing,” she said with a smile. “There will always be another sentence you want to change. But eventually you have to let the story belong to the readers.”
Jewish heart, Long Island roots, viral laughs
Max ‘MurrayHillBoy’ Cohen builds community through social media skits
By MELISSA BERMAN mberman@liherald.com
For Max Cohen, comedy has always been more than making people laugh — it’s about celebrating the people, traditions and quirks that shaped him while reminding audiences that Jewish families, despite their unique customs, aren’t all that different from anyone else.
The 26-year-old East Rockaway native, better known as “MurrayHillBoy” to his nearly 2 million followers across social media outlets, has built a devoted audience through fast-paced comedy sketches featuring over-the-top Jewish mothers, dramatic family dinners and hilariously familiar Long Island personalities.
Behind the wigs, designer dresses and perfectly timed punchlines is a proud Jewish, openly gay Long Islander whose upbringing continues to inspire nearly every video he creates.
“I’ve always been a proud Jew,” Cohen said. “Now I also feel a growing obligation to represent Jews in a positive light.”
Growing up with a mother, Lisa, who was raised in Hewlett and graduated from Hewlett High School, Cohen found himself balancing two worlds. While many Long Island Jews grew up surrounded almost exclusively by other Jewish families, his neighborhood was far more diverse.
“East Rockaway is Italian, Irish Catholics, Jews — it was kind of a mixed bag,” he said. “I think a lot of Jews grow up in a bubble where everyone’s Jewish. That wasn’t necessarily the case for me. I was well aware there were maybe 20 Jews in my grade and everyone else wasn’t.”
Rather than feeling isolated, Cohen said those experiences helped him better understand his own identity.
“Being exposed to lots of other communities and cultures helped me place myself in the world,” he said. “It gave me a little more self-awareness.”
His Jewish identity, however, remained constant.
“I think being Jewish is being part of a very small group of people who have shared cultural values and continue to persevere after centuries of people trying to make that not be the case,” he said.
Family leads to comedy
Family became the foundation for his values and eventually his comedy.
Like many Jewish households, holidays were major productions.
“We hosted every single holiday growing up,” Cohen recalled, “Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Passover — it didn’t matter. My mom’s side, my dad’s side, everyone was at our house.”
Those gatherings weren’t quiet affairs either, he recalled.
“Jews really value close family,” he said. “We’re encouraged to ask questions and argue. My family was talking and yelling over each other 24/7.”

While his fictional characters may be louder, flashier and considerably more dramatic than his real relatives, Cohen said they’re grounded in familiar experiences.
“We are not the family I portray in my videos,” he laughed. “I don’t even have a sister. I have two younger brothers. But everything is grounded in reality.”
Those realities have become comedy gold. Whether it’s a mother demanding the perfect holiday table, a Long Island parent obsessing over camp packing lists or a family argument that spirals into complete chaos, Cohen’s sketches resonate because they’re rooted in recognizable moments.
“I usually start with one small moment,” he explained. “Maybe something I thought of in the shower or something that’s happening in the world, and then I build an entire story around it.”
A single one-minute sketch can take nearly 14 hours from conception to publication.
“I write it, rewrite it, play every character, set up costumes, lights, props, edit everything, add captions, sound effects and music,” he said. “People think it’s just me throwing on heels in my mom’s house, but there’s so much that goes into making it look effortless.”
Much of that work still happens inside his parents’ home, which has become an unofficial television set for his growing cast of recurring characters.
“The house is basically another character,” Cohen joked. “The staircase has become iconic.”
His mother initially supplied much of the wardrobe.
“I wore all of my mom’s clothes,” he said with a laugh. “Eventually I ran out

because once an outfit goes viral, people remember it.”
Today, Amazon boxes have largely replaced his mother’s closet, although family still plays an active role in every production.
Despite his growing success, Cohen never planned to become a full-time content creator.
After graduating from Tulane University with degrees in communications and English, he joined a prestigious Manhattan law firm’s paralegal program, while living in the Murray Hill section of Manhattan. He expected to attend law school. Instead, he found himself increasingly unhappy.
Taking a new path
“I looked around and realized everyone else genuinely wanted to become lawyers,” he said. “I didn’t.”
Looking for another path, he began posting videos on TikTok.
His first video reached roughly 400,000 views. By his seventh video, one had surpassed 1 million.
“I got lucky,” he admitted. “But I also became obsessed with figuring out why people stopped scrolling.”
That analytical mindset continues to shape every piece of content he produces. Cohen studies camera angles, pacing, captions and audience behavior with the precision of a researcher.
“You’re competing with everything,” he said, “puppies, breaking news, people getting arrested. Someone’s brain is basically turned off while they’re scrolling, so your job is to get it to turn back on.”
More recently, his work has taken on another dimension.
Launching his platform in the
months following the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas terrorist attacks and amid a sharp rise in antisemitism, Cohen quickly discovered that many followers viewed him as more than a comedian.
“I never intended to become an advocate,” he said. “Advocacy found me.”
Temples invited him to speak. Jewish organizations sought partnerships. Colleges across the country asked him to address students navigating difficult conversations about antisemitism and identity.
“What a great thing that happened,” Cohen said. “Making Jewish videos has encouraged people to be proud Jews at a time when somehow that feels controversial.”
He acknowledged receiving hateful comments online but refused to let them overshadow the overwhelming support he receives.
“For every antisemitic comment, there are hundreds of Jews laughing,” he said. “My content is always worth it.” He expressed hopes that audiences, Jewish or not, leave with a better understanding of who Jewish families really are.
“I want people to realize Jews are just people,” Cohen said.
As an openly gay Jewish creator, Cohen also understands the importance of visibility.
“There was definitely toxic masculinity,” he recalled. “Kids called me names after I came out. People were uncomfortable when I started dating my boyfriend publicly.”
Still, he said, the Jewish community largely embraced him.
“I’m loud, I’m proud, I’m gay and I’m Jewish,” Cohen said. “That’s my shtick. I’m not changing.”

What to do about cracking concrete
Q. We have large cracks in our concrete driveway and garage floor, and want to make sure they are repaired correctly, since they appear to be recently done, possibly within a year before we purchased the house. In particular, there is a nearly round hole that turned to gravel, kind of, and we want to know why it happened and avoid having it happen again. What can you tell us?
A. Concrete reacts to extreme weather changes. That is a given to designers of concrete structures, even though most people think concrete is the “immovable object.”
Nature moves mountains, so your driveway was no challenge for the forces of nature.


Extreme cold causes concrete to contract, push in on itself, while the heat has the effect of stretching this fairly rigid material to its limits. In the heat of summer, as you may have heard, the beautifully engineered Autobahn in Germany just buckled in various places. I’ve seen cars going nearly 200 miles per hour on that roadway, but with a buckled road, sections were shut down.
The key to any material selection is understanding its reaction to two major factors in nature, namely, water and movement. Throw in other factors, like chemical reaction and deterioration rates, and you realize that concrete is vulnerable. You have to work with its basic properties to have it adapt and cooperate with your intended use.
All that being said, the hole is basically like a zit, a buildup of pressure in a weaker place across the surface. Concrete develops strength as a chemical reaction to the specific combination of materials it is made from. With too much water in the mix, it will be weaker, especially in a particular spot. If it has no way to expand over a large area, as a thin sheet, only 4 to 6 inches thick over 10 to 20 feet, its strength is reduced because of a strengthto-distance ratio. So, to relieve the intensity of the expansion or contraction, separations, or “joints,” are made so the slabs can spread the forces of shrinking or expanding, a little.

Concrete is known to be very strong in compression, meaning you can press it together, to an extreme, before it crushes. On the other hand, it has very little ability to resist being stretched or pulled apart. To counteract the problem, steel, which is very elastic (stretchable) is spaced within formed concrete to increase the resistance to cracking apart. The combination of steel, in the right ratio and strength, and expansion joints, to let the concrete separate without unsightly cracks, makes the concrete more stable. Even just a depressed joint, not through and through, helps, by basically letting the concrete crack in a controlled way, where the crack runs in a straight depression instead of looking like a big rip.
I recommend having a professional make the repairs, with caution. You want an experienced company that works from a calculated solution, not just a quick fix. More next week. Good luck!
