Hello!
My name is Paulina Librizzi. I am a New Yorker, born and raised in the city. I like to think that I am incredibly close with my heritage as an Italian-American, but I realize I am so much further from my heritage than most because the initial immigrants came over about a century ago. It sometimes seems bourgeois to speak of my heritage because connection to the actual culture has been diluted over the years. I cling to it still because I believe in stories. Stories make the wheels of New York City turn, because we each have something unique and interesting to share.
This is my picture from a few months ago.
It looks like something went wrong when uploading your picture. Could you try again please? Thanks!Never mind, it was an issue on my end.
Sorry for the late response. I wouldn’t have had a problem uploading another photo, because my photo might have been a png instead of a jpeg, which could have caused a correctible issue, but if it’s all okay, that’s good.
PNG format is fine. You didn’t do anything wrong — it was all in my head! :)
