Search "Julie's" on this Discussion Board and you'll find lots of posts, including several of your own asking this question repeatedly.
.
You can also try the Research Department at the NYPL:  
http://www.nypl.org/research
(I recommend on-site research in order to get research assistance from the staff.)
.
Search the news archives at the city newspapers (NY Post, NY Daily News, Newsday, Village Voice, ...).  Search the internet and wayback machine for stories.  
.
And search for Julie's own personal account of her experiences in NY. They used to be on the web. Still are? url?
