Brooklyn’s pumpkin man McMahon sculpts goodbye gift for BP Markowitz
Halloween is over, but “pumpkin carver to the stars” Hugh McMahon is still as busy as ever carving the giant gourds (and other fruit and vegetables) for Thanksgiving and other events.
Recently, McMahon carved the image of Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz onto a pumpkin for the BP’s fabulous going away party held at Noodle Pudding in Brooklyn Heights.
“The pumpkin went over very well,” McMahon told the Brooklyn Eagle on Monday. “Marty’s wife loved it – they brought it home with them after the party.”
