Cabaret

Funny how we all believed that Stanton & Ludlow was the center of the world.

We were all deeply embedded in the idea of the glory of backstage. Some of us were beautiful and wanted the spotlight, some of us were shy and could pass for cute.

Everything was a Caberet, and since we couldn't afford to buy things and enjoy them sitting at the bar, we worked on the other side and embezzled whenever we could.

It was history not repeating itself, but rythming. A beautiful group of young kids, like in Berlin 1931. 

We were there in the late 90's.

Before the turn of the century.

Before 9/11.

Yard Sales & Imagining NYC

Albums:




And then the New Yorker & NYTimes, to be read in an urbane manner.
In a rich apartment, overlooking the river.
