The Story of Natalia Paruz, New York's Musical "Saw Lady"

In Melody Under NYC, Columbia students Zheheng Hong, Ye Zhang and Junda Xiang profile Natalia Paruz, NYC's resident Saw Lady. Paruz had once hoped to be professional dancer, but after being hit by a car near Lincoln Center, she had to find a new career path. In the video, she talks about how she found the Saw, learned to play and landed in this unexpected career of busking and performing on the musical saw.
