Famous New Yorker???

<p>I just looked at the supplement.
Who are other 2014 students using?
Any suggestions??</p>

<p>The prompt:
If you had the opportunity to
spend one day in New York City
with a famous New Yorker, who
would it be and what would you
do? (Your New Yorker can be
anyone—past or present, fictional
or nonfictional—who is commonly
associated with New York City;
they do not necessarily have to
have been born and raised in
New York.)</p>

<p>Oh, I wish that would’ve been my prompt. I would’ve written about the unnamed protagonist from Jay McInerney’s novel, “Bright Lights, Big City”.</p>

<p>Why are you asking us for suggestions, organic? Write about someone you’d actually think it would be cool to meet and try not to go for something 90% of students will go for (for my supplement we had to “sing” a certain song in a talent show, and I remember one of the people from NYU said that a whole bunch of people used these two/three certain songs I don’t remember, and they tried to emphasize doing something original). NYC is a big place so I’m sure you can find someone interesting. :)</p>

<p>Just out of curiosity. I wouldn’t dare using something if I knew someone else was going to use it too. It screws both of us :slight_smile:
I have an idea but it may be one of the typical ones.</p>

<p>i’m glad i’m not applying this year, because my honest answer would have been the most common. . .</p>

<p>woody allen!</p>

<p>I have no idea who I’m using.</p>

<p>I LOVE my choice! Shows my taste for good indian food!</p>

<p>Spike Lee!</p>

<p>good topic!</p>

<p>Any current NYU students mind if I PM you my choice?? Just to see if you think its good.
I don’t want it to be stolen- even though I don’t think it’s very original.</p>

<p>Ayn Rand or Grisha Perelman. But I mean, how many famous people are or were once New Yorkers?</p>

<p>a lot.</p>

<p>i love this question; the response only needs to be like 3 sentences long</p>

<p>That is such a good question!!! If that had been my prompt it would be between Capote, Warhol, Babe Paley or Nan Kempner…</p>

<p>I wish we had this question. D: I thought I would pick Bella Abzug but after looking at the list that missamericanpie posted, I’d have to go with Clara Bow.</p>

<p>Carrie Bradshaw.</p>

<p>^ LOL</p>

<p>You can PM me if you like. I am already done with that short answer with one more left to go. I am a 2014er though.</p>

<p>Pm me if you want!</p>
