Tom's Diner

[tamar@attunix.att.com]

Tom's Diner is located on Broadway and about 112th st
in NYC. (This is the west, not the east, side.) It's
a favorite local greasy spoon for Columbia students.
Suzanne Vega attended Barnard so it's likely that
she, like the rest of us, had her share of egg
creams and coffee there in the wee hours.

Actually her college experience seems to be
important to her. She did a benefit for Barnard
last year along with fellow alums Laurie Anderson
and Joan Rivers which was excellent. I also
saw her several years ago perform for a small
crowd at the student center. And, I hear she is
writing a play that is an adaptation of her
senior thesis on Carson McCullers.
