<P0-S0> Peter Gadol is an American author. <P0-S1>  Gadol was born on April 15, 1964 and grew up in Westfield, New Jersey. <P0-S2>  He received an A.B. "magna cum laude" in English and American Literature from Harvard College in 1986. <P0-S3>  While at Harvard, he studied writing with Seamus Heaney, wrote a thesis on Wallace Stevens under the supervision of Helen Vendler, edited the literary magazine "The Harvard Advocate", and was for two years a fiction intern at "The Atlantic". <SEP> <P1-S0> Middlesex County is a county located in north-central New Jersey, United States. <P1-S1>  As of the 2016 Census estimate, the county's population was 837,073, making it the state's second-most populous county, an increase of 3.4% from the 2010 United States Census, when its population was enumerated at 809,858, making it the second-most populous county in the state. <P1-S2>  Middlesex is part of the New York metropolitan area, and its county seat is New Brunswick. <P1-S3>  The center of population of the state of New Jersey is located in Middlesex County, in East Brunswick Township, just east of the New Jersey Turnpike. <P1-S4>  The 2000 Census showed that the county ranked 63rd in the United States among the highest-income counties by median household. <P1-S5>  The Bureau of Economic Analysis ranked the county as having the 143rd-highest per capita income of all 3,113 counties in the United States (and the 10th-highest in New Jersey) as of 2009. <P1-S6>  Middlesex County holds the nickname, "The Greatest County in the Land". <SEP> <P2-S0> The New Jersey and New York Railroad (NJ&NY) was a railroad company that operated north from Rutherford, New Jersey, to Haverstraw, New York beginning in the mid-to-late 19th century. <P2-S1>  The line was originally chartered as the Hackensack and New York Railroad (H&NY) in 1856. <P2-S2>  The H&NY would eventually run from Rutherford to Hackensack, New Jersey. <P2-S3>  In 1866 under the leadership of David P. Patterson the company was rechartered as the Hackensack and New York Extension Railroad and it extended its line north of Hackensack. <P2-S4>  It later reorganized as the New Jersey and New York Railroad. <P2-S5>  The line reached the town of Haverstraw, New York by 1870, the village of West Haverstraw by 1873, and the village of Haverstraw by 1887. <P2-S6>  The NJ&NY was in turn leased for 99 years by the Erie Railroad in 1896. <P2-S7>  The NJ&NY continued to exist as an Erie subsidiary until the 1960 merger that created the Erie Lackawanna Railroad. <P2-S8>  In 1976 the Erie Lackawanna was merged with several other railroads to create Conrail. <P2-S9>  In 1983, after several years under operation by Conrail, operations of the Pascack Valley Line were transferred to New Jersey Transit Rail Operations. <P2-S10>  The segments of the two former railroad lines in New York: north of Spring Valley to Haverstraw and north of Nanuet to New City; are no longer in service. <SEP> <P3-S0> Westfield is a town in Union County of New Jersey, United States. <P3-S1>  As of the 2010 United States Census, the town's population was 30,316, reflecting an increase of 672 (+2.3%) from the 29,644 counted in the 2000 Census, which had in turn increased by 774 (+2.7%) from the 28,870 counted in the 1990 Census. <P3-S2>  According to a 2014 nationwide survey, Westfield is considered to be the 30th-safest city to live in the United States.
