A friend of mine is an artist and has a crazy upbringing. She is funny and also is truly kind. She also sort of thinks very metaphorically so talking to her is fascinating.

I know someone, oldest of 8, born into utter poverty in late 50s rural siuth,, raised by single mom with grade school education, black, gay. Brilliant and made it to Yale for physics and math, made it on wall street, is significantly wealthy, written books, produced movies and documentaries, collects art, is hilarious and very well connected and a riveting presence....

People let me tell ya ‘bout my best friend, he’s a young boy, a fine boy, my up, my down, my pride and joy...

My son and the most interesting and genuine person I know.
