My Kinda New Yorkers is an ongoing documentary series capturing the daily lives of individuals who spark a profound sense of emotional kinship. From DJ DB—who introduced jungle music to NYC and now runs a publishing house—to writer-actor Mr. Galinsky, rock vocalist-designer Chris, and dancer-barista Betsy, it follows multi-hyphenate figures shaping the city's creative pulse. Moving past superficial facades, this visual document explores the unseen energy, resilience, and quiet moments of those who truly define my New York.
