Christy Turlington Instagram – I lost a friend today. He was a unique and a true New Yorker, even though he was from Savannah, Georgia. This is the last photo we took together at Lincoln Center in 2018. I met Bobby Zarem in 1992 at the Rainbow Room after seeing Liza Minnelli perform at Radio City Music Hall. Does it get any more New York City than that? We met and started talking on the revolving dance floor. I was on the part that moved and Bobby kept side stepping to keep up with me. We became great friends after that. He took me to MLB games, NBA games, and to see performances at ABT, the Met and Broadway with regularity for over two decades. He helped me out with my early charity endeavors and even joined me on a trip to El Salvador. I started working on a documentary project nearly ten years ago about my early days in NYC. Bobby was one of the people who inspired that project. He introduced me to so many legends across every area of the arts and entertainment fields. He knew everyone who was anyone in NYC. He told the best stories and had the best manners but also the sharpest tongue. He was sweet, and shy and self deprecating one minute and then brash and unforgiving the next. I loved the range in his personality. Always interesting and interested. I will miss him in this world. 💙
