Deirdre Gartner was born and raised in the city of New York. She brings a uniquely personal and distinct perspective to the city that she adores. As a former fashion executive traveling the globe for years, nothing was more affirming and inspiring than when she would return home to Manhattan. Informed by her adventures abroad, this native daughter's ardor and curiosity for all things New York led her to zealously document both the obvious and hidden that the city has to offer. Gartner's extensive collection of lovingly curated photographs, stories, and historical details eventually led to the creation of the "Girl in the Yellow TaxiNYC" website and Instagram. Her work has been featured in CondeNast India , the New YorkBoard of Tourism, StreetEasy, and others. She has been a guest blogger for various websites and has created custom itineraries for her enthusiastic international and domestic followers. See less
