Anna Neighbor interviews Naomi Levine
When did you become a member and why?
I became a member in May. I believe in having a unionized work force. Also I feel a real sense of urgency to improve what is a pretty criminal employment situation for a highly educated and dedicated work force. It’s hard to stomach knowing that each of your students is paying thousands of dollars for your services and yet you are only making a fraction of what a single student pays to take your class.
When not juggling day jobs, where are we most likely to find you?
I am currently editing a documentary film about Armenia, and doing my best not to watch hours of singing competition auditions on youtube.
If you had a personal mascot what would it be?
I think Rosie the Riveter is a pretty great mascot.
When you cook us all dinner, what will you prepare for us?
I will make Armenian food. It’s delicious, I have great family recipes, and it’s cheap to prepare.
