Julie's Story
Life
Hey hey PA!
I just discovered this site, what a kick!
I was at PA 78-81, drama dept. I left in my junior year to do a show and transferred to PCS, so I didn't graduate but I would have been class of 82. My brother,Adam, graduated in 79, he lives in Oakland, CA with his wife of 20 years and 2 beautiful teenage daughters.
I went to his 20 year reunion in 99, had a blast! Hope to get to NYC in 2007 for my 25 year reunion (gulp!)
Left NYC in 1991, lived in Chicago for 10 years doing theatre and improv. Still do voice over work (listen to People PC commercials, that's me!) also play music with my man, Johnny Nation, in our band CITY FRITTER - check us out on myspace or cityfritter website.
We also have a brand new, kick ass CD for sale on CDbaby - "FROM THE OCEAN TO THE DESERT" - country flavored folk/rock with a sense of humor!
We live in the Topanga Canyon area of Los Angeles. Nestled between the Pacific Coast Highway and...Expand for more
the valley, Topanga is a beautiful place - very woodsy and country. We also have a trailer on a small property in Joshua Tree for desert getaways. I've come a long way from 46th St! I enjoy hiking with my 2 dogs, surfing, practicing and teaching yoga and seeing my old friends turn up on TV and in movies!
Any of you at PA during the pre-FAME era, check out the imdb message boards about the movie- just amazing what an effect the film had and still has on artistic youth!
I'm so proud and grateful to have been part of that amazing time, going to high school on Times Square when it still WAS Times Square, and sharing all that energy and enthusiasm with a bunch of freaks like me. Whenever I do run into an old PA friend (recently Erica Gimpel and Cathryn DePrume) we just smile and marvel at how lucky we were to have had that experience.
Drop me a line if you remember me, hope to re-connect with some of you at the next reunion. Peace!
