On a magical evening in June of 2020 in New York City (when things were still super weird but not quite as weird as they had been) Meredith Lepore met Phil Grant on the corner of 14th and 8th. He had a bottle of wine and she had red solo cups. They sipped on walktails while they watched the sunset on Chelsea Piers and talked about the greatest film of all time, Jurassic Park. When it came on later that night, he texted her and the rest is history.
