Cazzie David’s Instagram Inspires Envy and Admiration

The consensus is in: Everyone wants to be 23-year-old Cazzie David, Larry David’s daughter. Or at least, her life looks pretty enjoyable, as it involves lounging in the sun and mingling with comedy legends. A 2015 Schmooze post by Maia Efrem alerted readers to Cazzie’s (and sister Romy’s) glamorous Instagram presence. Well, Romy’s account is private and Cazzie’s is not, which may explain why Anna Silman devoted the latest “I Like This Bitch’s Life” installment, from Monday, to Cazzie alone. Writes Silman: “In the realm of quirky, neurotic Jewish girls who love comedy, Cazzie represents the platonic ideal, the kind of person you’d cast in an idealized movie version of your own life.”

This is a moment of great uncertainty. Here’s what you can do about it.
We hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, we’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s independent Jewish news this Passover.
This is a moment of great uncertainty for the news media, for the Jewish people, and for our sacred democracy. It is a time of confusion and declining trust in public institutions. An era in which we need humans to report facts, conduct investigations that hold power to account, tell stories that matter and share honest discourse on all that divides us.
With no paywall or subscriptions, the Forward is entirely supported by readers like you. Every dollar you give this Passover is invested in the future of the Forward — and telling the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
The Forward doesn’t rely on funding from institutions like governments or your local Jewish federation. There are thousands of readers like you who give us $18 or $36 or $100 each month or year.
