Lahoma van Zandt, legendary entertainer of yesteryear, master of the sock puppet, and avid postcard collector is celebrating her birthday with a week of well-wishers flocking to her new digs on Lexington Avenue. She doesn't get out much anymore, but all of us will remember the selfless energy she spent making out nights endless fun. Whether jumping up on the statue of Ghandi for a photo or serving donuts at one of Michael Alig's "outlaw parties" at midnight, she did what she could be make our times together memorable. I wish I could be there; happy birthday.
