Stamford Personalities: Elizabeth, the New York Times Lady


Most mornings at 7AM, she is to be found "under the big tree" in front of Chez Jean Pierre French restaurant on Summer Street.

She always has a stack of newspapers of your choice ready to dispense.

Whether your favorite morning read is the Times, Advocate or Daily News,she has it for you.

People walking to work depend on her for their morning read.

Drivers going North on Atlantic and then to Summer Street stop for a few seconds to chat with her as she quickly hands them their paper of choice.


Her name is Elizabeth, she speaks English with a slight patois accent and she is as dependable as your local postman.

Her age-well, she turns 95 in November. Hats off to this enterprising Stamford citizen!
