Her favorite New York movie is Smoke, her favorite New York band is Sonic Youth, and her favorite New York hero is Shirley Chisholm. She would like to thank her family and dearest friends for their unwavering support, and to give props to Tommy and the gang at Academy Restaurant, the best diner in the city. She dedicates a knife, a fork, a bottle, and a cork to Benjamin Mias Carroll Del Barrio, the reason why. Bronx cheers can be addressed to her at nycdummy@gmx, com.
