Who is Anya Firestone?
Anya is an art historian who is licensed by the French government to give tours of historical and cultural venues throughout Paris.
She is one of six American ex-pats living in Paris being followed by cameras for Bravo show Real Girlfriends in Paris.
The show, which premiered on September 5, also stars Emily Gorelik, Margaux Lignel, Kacey Margo, Adja Toure and Victoria Zito.
The reality show follows them as they get to know new love interests, go through career changes and navigate conflicts in their friendships.
And Anya is hoping her inclusion on the show will “open people’s minds to art and culture”.
She told Today: “I am so passionate about French culture. It’s like I was born French in another life. To be able to be given a platform to express myself as an art theorist…we haven’t seen an art philosopher on Bravo before.
“A philosopher can be quirky, drink champagne, go out with her girlfriends and defy a stereotype. I’m proud of who I am. I’m not what people might think immediately when they look at us.”
Anya hails from New York.
