Studio 360 – Episode 845 – The Great Gatsby – Segment 5

Gatsby in the Burbs
It may be the first great novel set in a suburb. Andrew Lauren, son of designer Ralph, explains why he wrote a movie about a hip-hop Gatsby in real-life East Hampton. Scholar Ruth Prigozy drives us out to Great Neck, the model for Fitzgerald’s ?West Egg,? to see the view of the bay. We get lost on the way.
