Rivington Was Ours Résumé

Rivington Was Ours: Lady Gaga, the Lower East Side, and the Prime of Our Lives Brendan Jay Sullivan

Brendan Sullivan was an up-and-coming New York City DJ when he met Stefani Germanotta, then a struggling artist, in 2006. She was a go-go dancer who sewed her own outfits but had bigger ambitions-she wanted nothing less than to take over the music world. In this intimate portrait of the budding star who would soon catapult to fame and fortune, the author describes afternoons sitting with Gaga on the floor of her bare Lower East Side apartment, drinking wine from pint glasses and plotting out the pop stardom that awaited her. Filled with stories of love and heartbreak among Gaga and Sullivan and their circle of aspiring musicians and performers, and set against the vibrant backdrop of the downtown bars and parties of the mid-Aughts, Rivington Was Ours is both a love letter to the New York night scene and a glimpse behind the veil of one of the biggest musical icons of her generation.
