“Tiger King” director Eric Goode owns several New York hotels and restaurants that have all had to shut their doors amid the coronavirus pandemic, putting many of his employees out of work. Now, some of them are asking for his help.
Goode, who directed and executive produced Netflix’s smash-hit docuseries “Tiger King” along with Rebecca Chaiklin, owns the Bowery Hotel, the Jane Hotel, the Waverly Inn, and a number of restaurants including one well-established NoHo eatery called B Bar and Grill.
Buzzfeed News conducted interviews with some of Goode’s former B Bar staffers who were laid off from the restaurant when the pandemic hit.
