When I wrote "New York Person" at the top of my Instagram bio years ago, I only had one "New York Person" in mind: Fran Lebowitz. And while I recognize the irony of mentioning my Instagram account as I introduce someone notorious for not having so much as an email address, I am confident that Lebowitz will never read this, both because she does not use the internet and because she does not care to seek it out. When the inside of your brain belongs to Fran Lebowitz, it's a pretty interesting place to hang out. She gave me a peek inside as we talked over the phone about fandom, the writer's strike, when she saw Destiny's Child perform, and the comfort of her own mind. |
