Not Natty
Narrated Drama Series
Although she didn't know why, nothing was ever about Natty. She was always buried at the bottom of the pile, the last on the list, the least important ingredient.
Her father's an attorney but works selling furniture. Her mentally ill sister gets dragged across the country to see specialists. Her mother wants all the good things in life she'll never have. And Natty? She gets deposited with gangsters and racketeering relatives in Cleveland!
In spite of everything, Natty strives to maintain a sense of humor as she navigates her Jewish family's ongoing turmoil as well as the profound changes of the 1940s and '50s. Many found the complexities of the time overwhelming, but not Natty.
Based on a true story, she is determined to develop her own identity beyond the chaotic life of her family. Many would give up and give in. Not Natty.
