My father and mother should have stayed in New York, where they met and married and where I was born.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
My parents were New Yorkers, and I was conceived in Los Angeles. My father was a makeup artist to Clint Eastwood and Richard Chamberlain.
My parents really wanted me to get out of New York, be exposed to other people, other ways of life.
I always intended to move back to New York when I was first there.
My family moved to Buffalo, New York in 1940 where I was raised.
But one sets of grandparents lived on Davidson Avenue in the Bronx and one lived in Manhattan and I had an aunt and uncle in Queens, so in my heart I was a New Yorker.
My mother came here to New York. She and my grandmother were domestics, cooking, cleaning for other people.
I was born in the Bronx, and then my father moved us to the country at an early age.
I lived in New York for five years; I've lived in Barcelona, Rome, and Paris at different times. When I was 18, I was dying to live in a city.
My mother couldn't have been happier when I said I was moving to New York.
My mom lives in New York still in the home that I grew up in.
