Curatorial Note:

At the time this oral history was recorded in 2011, seventy-two-year-old Gay Revi was an unlikely blogger with a large local following. Her blog, "Granny Geek," included opinion pieces, local news and restaurant reviews. According to a 2011 profile in the Oak Cliff Advocate, her blog typically received anywhere from 200 to 2,000 views daily. Unfortunately, as of 2022, it has been discontinued and is no longer accessible online. -- Stephen Fagin, Curator
