More about Anderson partner Benjamin Maisani
Maisani first came to New York city to study filmmaking but to earn some more money, he ended up taking a job at Barracuda, a gay bar in Chelsea.
Working at bar helped Maisani to come out of his shell.
In an interview with Frenchly, Maisani shared his experience of working at bar,
“I’ve always been a night person, the bar got me out of my books and the cozy atmosphere of the Morgan and working in a social environment forced me to work on my timidity. It gave me self-confidence.”
Maisani is still in the bar industry, although today not as a bartender but as an owner. He owns three popular bars located throughout New York City namely; Eastern bloc, Bedlam Bar & Lounge, and Atlas Social Club.
He is also as hardworking, confident, and influential as his boyfriend.
At last, we want to wish the couple a very happy love life and all the best for future plans.
