My friends here tease me because, city kid that I am, I’m afraid of the boogeyman when I walk down the street in the dark – even if it’s only 7pm on a winter evening. I now live in Wayne, PA with my husband of nearly twenty years and my two (if I do say so myself) beautiful children. When there was “no life above 14th Street” and the men’s shelter was around the corner on one side, and the Hells Angels’ world headquarters around the corner on the other. From before it was cool – when it was just seedy and scary. Truthfully I was born in New Jersey and lived mostly there for the first twelve years of my life, but New York City is where my heart and identity reside.
People ask me where I’m from and while I will mention the town in which I now reside, I always quickly add that I’m “from” New York City.
